Grand View Lodge is looking for a detail-oriented, energetic Banquet Houseperson to play a key role in the setup, execution, and breakdown of our banquet and event spaces. You'll be responsible for ensuring every function room is perfectly set, every public area is clean and welcoming, and every last-minute change is handled with a positive attitude and a sense of urgency.

This is a behind-the-scenes role with a very visible impact; when events run smoothly, it's in large part because of the work you do.

For over 100 years, Cote Hospitality has crafted transformative guest experiences across world-class resorts and camps. At Grand View Lodge, that means exceptional wellness woven into a full resort lifestyle, golf, dining, events, and more, all grounded in our Cote Cares culture of belonging, respect, and shared purpose. We're invested in your growth here: this role comes with real opportunity to grow your career across the entire Cote Hospitality organization.

• Set up and break down meeting and event rooms daily; arranging tables, chairs, linens, equipment, and supplies according to each event's specifications and daily worksheets.
• Inspect each function room before events and during breaks to ensure all requirements are met and the space is guest-ready.
• Inspect all public areas, foyers, assembly areas, and restrooms, for cleanliness and a polished, welcoming appearance throughout the day.
• Ensure all necessary audio/visual and event equipment is in place and functioning prior to each event.
• Regularly inventory and maintain all banquet equipment; report any damage, shortages, or repair needs promptly.
• Respond to last-minute guest requests and changes with a can-do attitude; flexibility and a commitment to guest satisfaction are essential in this role.
• Assist with serving duties during events as needed.
• Maintain cleanliness and order across all banquet front and back-of-house areas throughout your shift.
• Support the broader catering and events team with additional tasks as assigned.
• This is a resort hospitality role; availability on weekends, holidays, and extended hours during peak event seasons is required.

• Prior banquet, hospitality, or event support experience preferred but the right attitude and work ethic matter just as much.
• Strong attention to detail; you notice what's off and you fix it before anyone has to ask.
• Clear, professional communication skills and a genuinely team-oriented approach.
• The ability to manage your time well and stay on schedule across multiple simultaneous event setups.
• Physical stamina to stand and walk for 6–7 hours, climb stairs, reach, bend, and occasionally lift over 50 lbs.
• A positive, guest-first mindset; you take pride in delivering an exceptional experience for every event and every guest.

You'll be part of a team that genuinely invests in its people. Cote Cares isn't a tagline, it's how we show up for each other every day. You'll have the tools, support, and team culture to do your best work, with real opportunity to grow your career across the entire Cote Hospitality organization.
