Restaurant & Events Manager – Weddings & Celebrations Focus

About The Sir George

Nestled in the heart of Jugiong, The Sir George is a destination venue blending historic charm with modern hospitality. With origins dating back to 1852, we are renowned for our restaurant, boutique accommodation (11 rooms), and as a much-loved venue for weddings and celebrations.

Our team delivers premium events and a vibrant country pub experience, built on genuine connection, quality, and community.

The Role

We're seeking an experienced and detail-oriented Function & Events Manager to join our team. This dynamic dual-role position is ideal for someone who thrives in high-energy environments, leads with confidence from the floor, and has a keen eye for detail, especially within the wedding and events space. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who is looking to grow with us and become a key part of our venue's future.

As the primary onsite contact for weddings, you'll guide couples through their planning journey post-booking, create run sheets, host site inspections, and execute their event vision. You'll work alongside our Group Sales Manager (who oversees sales, corporate and social event coordination) and Operations Manager (who leads day-of logistics), taking ownership of the guest-facing event experience.

During the off-season, your focus will shift to restaurant management, where you'll lead front-of-house operations and contribute to our dynamic hospitality team.
