Special Event Manager

Carmine’s Las Vegas — home of legendary Southern Italian family-style dining right on the Strip — is looking for a dynamic Special Events Sales Manager to lead our private dining and large-party business. This is your opportunity to sell one of Las Vegas’s most iconic dining experiences: mountains of housemade pasta, whole roasted chickens, and classic Italian feasts served family-style in the heart of the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace.

You’ll be the face of Carmine’s for corporate groups, milestone celebrations, bachelorette parties, convention buyouts, and everything in between. If you thrive in the energy of Vegas, love building relationships, and know how to close deals — we want to hear from you.
