Mercure Amsterdam City is looking for an enthusiastic colleague, preferably with a passion for the hotel industry. Are you eager to join our team managed by Anouk and Lars? With 368 rooms, 2 restaurants, a spacious terrace, a beautiful bar and 14 meetings rooms… We could use your help in planning the best events and are looking for a fulltime Event Planner!

Who are we looking for?
As an Event Planner, you see it as a challenge to organize meetings and large (room) groups down to the last detail. In doing so, you pay as much attention as possible to the guest's wishes, thinking in terms of possibilities and solutions. You meticulously prepare contracts, and you are well-versed in administrative, commercial, and analytical skills. Additionally, you make it a sport to secure (last-minute) requests. Despite organizing multiple groups simultaneously, you are adept at keeping things in order and handling work pressure well. You closely collaborate with other departments to collectively address the guest's needs. At least 2 years of experience at this department is required.

What’s in it for you?
Mercure Hotel Amsterdam City is beautifully situated on the water and ideally located for the ArenA, ZiggoDome, the Zuidas, the city center and only 5 minutes from the RAI Convention Centre. Given its location, just off the highway, it is easy to get to.

Our hotel is part of the Accor hotel chain, a great advantage because it gives you many opportunities to grow within different hotels (Mercure, Novotel, ibis, Sofitel, Movenpick etc.!). In our hotel you get the chance to learn and develop yourself. You are part of an international team of currently around 60 colleagues. The working environment is friendly and we will make sure you have a good work-life balance in your work.
