Event Sales & Services Manager

We are looking for a Event Sales & Services Manager to join the re-opening of the famed Delano Miami Beach
.

Set to open its doors in early 2026, Delano Miami Beach will fuse historic charm with contemporary luxury, reflecting a reimagined experience that pays homage to the original visionary concept. Comprising 171 rooms and distinct food and beverage concepts, the hotel will preserve its iconic walk-in pool and, in addition, unveil a new pool on an amenity deck, offering breathtaking views of the ocean.

Delano Miami Beach will act as the brand’s flagship location, re-establishing Delano as a trailblazer in luxury lifestyle hospitality. Ennismore, in partnership with Cain International (the owners of Delano Miami Beach as well as partner in the Delano brand), are currently undertaking a significant renovation and redevelopment of the iconic Delano hotel.

Under the general guidance of the Director of Special Events, the Event Sales and Services Manager will be the driving force behind unforgettable events that reflect Ennismore’s distinctive lifestyle brands. You’ll own the full journey—from selling inspired event concepts to delivering beautifully executed experiences—balancing commercial success with creative, guest-first thinking. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, design-led hospitality environment and understands that no two events (or clients) should feel the same while delivering a world-class level consistent with the Delano legacy.
