About Caffe Concerto
Caffe Concerto is one of London’s leading premium restaurant and cafe brands, renowned for elegant dining, luxury patisserie, afternoon tea and exceptional hospitality. With multiple iconic locations across London and an expanding international presence, we are committed to creating memorable experiences for every guest, whether they are joining us for breakfast, dinner, celebrations or private events.
We are looking for a passionate and customer-focused Events & Reservations Executive to join our Central Reservations team and help deliver outstanding service from the very first enquiry through to the successful delivery of each booking.

About the Role
As an Events & Reservations Executive, you will be the first point of contact for guests looking to dine, celebrate or host an event at Caffè Concerto. You will manage restaurant reservations, respond to event enquiries and assist guests in selecting the most suitable venue and experience for their needs.
Working closely with the Events & Reservations Manager, you will ensure that every enquiry is handled professionally, efficiently and with genuine hospitality. Your ability to build relationships, understand our venues and confidently recommend the right options will play an important role in increasing bookings and delivering an exceptional customer experience.
This is far more than a reservations role. Every enquiry represents an opportunity to create a memorable experience while contributing to the continued growth of the business.

Key Responsibilities
You will manage reservations and event enquiries received via telephone, email, website, social media, WhatsApp and third-party booking platforms, ensuring every enquiry is answered promptly, accurately and professionally.
You will assist guests with bookings for restaurant reservations, afternoon tea, celebrations, private dining, corporate functions, birthdays and group dining experiences, providing tailored recommendations based on their requirements and the facilities available across our venues.
You will prepare quotations, confirm bookings, process deposits where required and ensure all reservation details, dietary requirements, guest preferences and special requests are accurately recorded within the reservation system.
Working closely with restaurant management teams, you will communicate all event details clearly, ensuring each venue has the necessary information to deliver a seamless guest experience.
You will actively promote and upsell Caffè Concerto’s experiences and services, including celebration cakes, flowers, afternoon tea packages, drinks packages, exclusive dining experiences and seasonal promotions, always seeking opportunities to enhance the guest’s booking.
You will follow up on outstanding enquiries, maintain regular communication with prospective clients and work proactively to convert enquiries into confirmed reservations and events.
Where appropriate, you will support the Events & Reservations Manager by welcoming prospective clients and assisting with venue show-rounds, helping guests explore our restaurants and identify the most suitable location for their event or celebration.
You will maintain accurate records across all reservation systems, ensuring guest profiles, payments, notes and event details remain up to date while adhering to company procedures.
As part of the Central Reservations team, you will work collaboratively with the Marketing, Operations and Restaurant teams to ensure promotions, campaigns and special events are communicated accurately to guests and successfully delivered across all venues.

What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who enjoys working with people and takes pride in delivering outstanding customer service. You will be an excellent communicator with strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple enquiries while maintaining a calm and professional approach.
Previous experience within hospitality, reservations, guest relations, events or customer service is preferred. Experience using reservation systems such as SevenRooms, OpenTable, TheFork, DesignMyNight or similar platforms would be advantageous, although full training will be provided for the right candidate.
You should be confident using Microsoft Office and comfortable learning new systems, with excellent written and spoken English and a genuine passion for hospitality.

The Ideal Candidate
We’re looking for someone who is warm, professional and naturally enjoys creating great experiences for guests. You are organised, proactive and detail-oriented, with the confidence to build relationships and the commercial awareness to recognise opportunities to convert enquiries into bookings.
You understand that every interaction reflects the Caffè Concerto brand and that exceptional service begins long before a guest arrives at one of our restaurants.

Why Join Caffè Concerto?
Joining Caffè Concerto means becoming part of one of London’s most recognised hospitality brands, where every day brings new opportunities to create memorable experiences for our guests.
You will work alongside a passionate team in a fast-paced and supportive environment, with opportunities to develop your career within reservations, events, hospitality sales and commercial operations while contributing to the continued growth of a premium restaurant group.
