Crynodeb
Behind every seamless wedding or special event, there’s someone who’s quietly making sure nothing is left to chance.
At The Grand Hotel Birmingham, that someone is our Weddings & Special Events Co-ordinator — guiding guests from their first enquiry through to final details meetings and a clear, confident handover to our Operations team, who then run the event on the day.
It’s a role built on clarity, organisation and great communication — the things that make the planning journey feel effortless for our guests.
That means:
• Show rounds that win people over.
• Plans that stay organised.
• Details that are checked, confirmed and communicated clearly.
• Function sheets that let our Operations team deliver exactly what’s expected.
The role of Weddings & Special Events Co-ordinator is full-time working 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, with occasional flexibility for show rounds, key planning meetings or weekend attendance to see through the magic moments on the big day itself.
What you’ll bring
• Experience in a wedding or events coordination role, ideally in a hotel or venue environment.
• Warm, confident communication skills — with guests, colleagues and suppliers.
• Strong organisation, attention to detail and the ability to stay calm when timelines tighten.
• A collaborative approach and the ability to build fast, positive rapport.
• A genuine passion for delivering thoughtful, high-quality, memorable guest experiences.
