The role

  • The Assistant Manager supports the Hospitality Operations Manager in delivering exceptional guest experiences and maintaining the daily operational standards of Misan & Co. This is a hands-on role requiring close attention to the condition of our spaces, the readiness of each event and the comfort of every guest.
  • You will coordinate preparations, supervise housekeeping and event support staff, guide vendors and ensure that agreed arrangements are executed accurately and on time. Before each booking, you will review the event brief, inspect the space and confirm that furniture, equipment, supplies and service arrangements are ready. During events, you will remain available to guests, anticipate their needs and address routine issues promptly, escalating matters that require the Manager’s approval.
  • The role also includes inventory checks, equipment care, incident reporting, post-event inspections and ensuring that spaces are cleaned, reset and secured after use. You will be expected to identify problems early, follow tasks through to completion and maintain standards when the Manager is absent.
  • Success in this role means events run smoothly, guests feel thoughtfully cared for and routine operations are handled reliably without constant founder intervention.

Responsibilities

  • Carry out daily opening, readiness and closing checks across our spaces.
  • Inspect cleanliness, toilets, furniture, supplies and equipment; ensure shortcomings are corrected before guests arrive.
  • Review event briefs and prepare layouts, service items, equipment and staffing requirements.
  • Coordinate the Housekeeper, event support staff and vendors during setup, service and breakdown.
  • Welcome guests, anticipate their needs and resolve routine requests promptly and courteously.
  • Monitor guest comfort, event timings and service quality throughout each booking.
  • Escalate complaints, delays, safety concerns and requests outside your authority to the Manager.
  • Track inventory, consumables and equipment condition; report shortages, damage and maintenance needs.
  • Complete post-event inspections, incident records and operational handovers.
  • Ensure every space is cleaned, reset and secured after use.
  • Support booking administration and client follow-up as assigned.
  • Maintain agreed standards when the Manager is absent.

Requirements

  • At least 1 year relevant experience in hospitality, venue operations or event coordination.
  • Experience supervising staff and coordinating vendors.
  • Strong organisation, attention to detail and follow-through.

Questions about applying

They see your structured profile as it stands at the moment you apply, plus your CV if you have one attached. That snapshot is frozen - if you edit your profile next week, this application still shows what you sent today. Your salary expectation is never sent unless you choose to include it.
Yes. The match figure is for you, not for them - Misan & Co does not see it. The apply button works the same regardless of your match percentage.
Because boards rewrite titles when they republish. All copies of this vacancy are the same job at the same employer with the same closing date. We show the employer's own wording and list the rest above so you know you have already seen it.
It appears in your application tracker straight away. Because this application is handled here rather than on an external site, you will see the status change as Misan & Co moves it - viewed, shortlisted, interviewing or declined. Roles that redirect to an employer's own site cannot be tracked that way, and we say so on those listings.
This employer has not yet been checked against the corporate register. Regardless of any of that, no employer on this platform may ask you for money at any stage. If this one does, report it and tell us what they asked for.
