BANQUET CAPTAIN - FOOD

Lead the event. Support the team. Create the guest experience.

Are you the person who can walk into an event, see what needs to happen, and get the team moving? The Courtyard by Marriott Boise West/Meridian is looking for a Banquet Captain who enjoys leading from the floor, creating great guest experiences, and making sure every event runs smoothly from setup through cleanup.

Our hotel hosts meetings, trainings, receptions and special events, and these are some of our best opportunities to make a lasting impression. We are looking for a hands-on leader who can bring together the details, the team and the guest experience to make each event successful.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced banquet or Food & Beverage professional who is ready to take the next step in their hospitality career.

• Lead banquet events from setup through service and cleanup, making sure the room, service areas and team are ready.
• Review Banquet Event Orders (BEOs) and ensure events are set and executed according to client expectations.
• Serve as the primary on-site contact for banquet clients, anticipate needs and resolve concerns quickly.
• Lead, motivate and direct banquet associates during events, stepping in alongside the team when needed.

• Ensure tables, service ware, event spaces and Food & Beverage areas meet Marriott cleanliness and presentation standards.
• Monitor the guest experience throughout events and respond promptly to requests or service opportunities.
• Support banquet scheduling, billing, posting charges and appropriate upselling opportunities.
• Help train associates on banquet setup, service standards, plated and reception-style service, and guest engagement.

• Support Marriott Food & Beverage programs, initiatives and brand standards.
• Handle cash, credit card and guestroom transactions in accordance with hotel procedures when assigned.
• Maintain a clean, safe and organized work environment.
