Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Georgios Cafe Full time $35,000 - $70,000 per year

Catering & Events Coordinator (Approx. 30hrs/week)

Marco Polo Kitchen | Daytime Hours | Café + Catering Role

We're looking for a confident, organised, and people-focused Catering & Events Coordinator to join our team - someone who can manage catering enquiries, quotes, and schedules while being happy to roll up their sleeves and jump in wherever needed.

This is a hands-on, varied role based at our busy inner-city café. You'll be the face of our catering and events arm, managing client communications, preparing quotes and invoices in Xero, coordinating with chefs, and supporting the operations team during quieter moments. You'll also help with tea/coffee setups and occasional catering deliveries - no two days are the same.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Managing catering enquiries and bookings
  • Monitoring multiple email accounts and responding promptly
  • Preparing quotes and invoices using Xero
  • Creating clear and concise run sheets to eliminate errors
  • Liaising with chefs for menus and special requests
  • Scheduling catering drivers and coordinating event logistics
  • Setting up tea/coffee stations and grazing tables - with a love for aesthetically beautiful displays
  • Assisting with deliveries when needed
  • Supporting the café and operations team where required

What We're Looking For

  • Experience in hospitality, catering, or event coordination
  • Super organised with strong admin and communication skills
  • Comfortable working in a corporate-facing environment
  • Confident using Xero or similar platforms
  • Warm, friendly, professional, and flexible in your approach
  • Happy to help wherever needed - from the café floor to delivery runs
  • A true self-starter - results-driven and able to work independently
  • Available Monday to Friday, mornings and early afternoons
  • Strong attention to detail - never missing a request or dietary requirement
  • Bonus: Food Safety Cert / RSA / Driver's Licence

Why You'll Love It

  • Approx. 30 hours/week, Monday to Friday, daytime hours only
  • Be part of a fun, supportive, and growing team
  • Lead and shape the catering side of our business
  • No late nights - enjoy real work/life balance
