- Own the client relationship: Build trust and rapport as the primary point of contact throughout the event lifecycle; proactively manage expectations, resolve issues, and ensure a memorable client experience
- Maximize revenue opportunities: Identify upsell opportunities and recommend enhancements to increase contract value and elevate the guest experience
- Guide team performance: Communicate client requirements, provide direction, and offer feedback and coaching to ensure consistent, high-level service
- Support leadership and decision-making: Step in for senior leaders as needed; navigate complex challenges by analyzing situations and making informed decisions
