Someone who will relish the opportunity to make their mark and help this already well-established business continue to evolve.

Working as part of a supportive and collaborative head office team, your days will be spent assisting our customers to make or change their reservations as well as assisting the event sales team with follow-up and administration.

The key responsibility of this position is to efficiently respond to guest enquiries and requests across email, phones, and face to face ensuring that our guests get the information that they need, when they need it.

Training will be provided but a base understanding of reservations is necessary and event sales experience to advantage.

You have a positive attitude, vibrant personality and willingness to take on new challenges. An excellent communicator, professional and always well-presented with a strong customer focus.

Exceptional time management, organisational, and planning skills complimented by strong administration skills and a high level of attention to detail are required to succeed in this role.

Proficiency in reservations software such as Open Table is required and familiarity with event management software such as Venue Ops/ Momentus Elite is to advantage.

About Us:

Renascence Group operates five venues: Farmers Daughters, Farmers Daughters Wine House, Barra and Victoria by Farmers Daughters all in Melbourne and Morena Sydney.

Barra and Morena Sydney showcase the diverse range of cuisines from across Latin American cultures. Our goal is to elevate Australia's engagement with Latin America, whilst staying true to the flavours and techniques that represent Latin cuisine.

Our other restaurants focus on provenance and sustainability. Farmer's Daughters, our flagship venue heroes the Gippsland region and preserves the proud tradition of local farmers and producers, delivering their delicious produce direct to the heart of Melbourne. Our events and activations venue, Victoria by Farmers Daughters shares this ethos and farm to table focus.

We believe that there is a better way to do hospitality, one that that recognises effort and provides opportunity for those that put in. One that does not put profit before employees.

We expect a lot of our team when on duty. However, we also believe that a clear separation between work life and home life is important.  We respect weekends and strive to be an employer of choice.

We are a team of visionaries, perfectionists, and go-getters, and we're looking for like-minded people to join our ranks and help us expand.

We understand that in the current job climate you need to stand out as a superior place to work. This is why Renascence Group does everything to ensure we have a happy and productive team.
