What You'll Bring A natural ability to build relationships — you genuinely enjoy getting to know people, and you can turn that into helping a client plan the event they envision, within their style and budget.

A real love of planning parties and events. This can't just be a job to you — it must be something you're excited to do, with an eye for decor and a genuine interest in food and food trends.

Curiosity — you like staying on top of what's trending in events, food, and design, and you bring fresh ideas rather than waiting to be told what to do. Comfort with social media and Canva (or similar tools) helps here.

Comfort selling — including cold calling and proactively going after new business.

Strong organization and attention to detail, with the ability to juggle multiple events at once.

Maturity and professionalism; prior event-planning experience is a plus but not required, and a marketing background is a big plus.

Openness to learning golf and golf outing formats — no
