We’re currently looking for a Restaurants Events and Private Dining Manager to take the lead in our growing Restaurant Sales & Events team.
Here at Harrods, we currently house more celebrity chefs, and exclusive dining brands than any other location in the UK. Through our Sales & Events team, we want to provide a best in-class events and private dining destination for both our new and most treasured clients.
About the Role
The Events and Private Dining Manager is a senior role within the commercial Restaurant Events & Sales team. The main purpose is to set the Restaurant events strategy in line with our commercial ambitions by delivering the best customer service experience through selling and/or executing restaurant events, building internal and external relationships with our clients and working closely with both the restaurant management and Harrods Events teams.
About You
You’ll have previous Sales & Events experience working at a senior level within a luxury hotel, restaurant or corporate events environment. As the lead for the team, you’ll not only need to have excellent people management skills, but you’ll need to have a strong background in setting and executing sales strategies, have an active “black book” of potential clients, and have a thorough understanding of event operations and logistics within the restaurant and hospitality sector.
You will need to be willing to strive for excellence always by believing in the “Anything is Possible” motto we like to live by here at Harrods, by not only providing outstanding customer service to our clients, but by also hitting KPI’s and consistently mentoring and developing your team.
About Us
Harrods is one of the world’s leading luxury department stores and we’re becoming a destination for top designers, and the most sought-after brands from around the globe. Our combined mission is to make visiting our iconic Knightsbridge store one of the world’s most inspiring shopping experiences.
Our Promise to You
Help us make the impossible possible for our customers and we’ll do something remarkable for you. As well as offering a friendly environment to inspire your best work, we provide abundant opportunities and support to build an exceptional career across the varied specialisms of our business.
More immediately, you’ll benefit from:
- A competitive annual salary
- Company pension
- Hybrid and flexible working arrangements
- Support and training to develop your career at Harrods
- 33 days’ holiday (including bank holidays), your birthday off, plus a charity day off too
- Up to 33% in-store discount and access to our employee high-street discount portal

At Harrods we believe the personality and authenticity of our people sets us apart. We celebrate and invite applications from all cultures, backgrounds, tastes, and experiences and are proud of our culture where people from all walks of life can grow and thrive.
