About Us...

We are a 15-year legacy catering and events brand in Ottawa. As our owner transitions into a more public-facing role, we are seeking to bring on a "Logistics Architect". This can be an entry-level role for someone who is driven to learn quick or a high-impact position for a mature, experienced professional who finds joy in a flawless event flow and pride in execution. Familiarity with the greater Ottawa community is an asset.

The Role: A "Numbers Person" with a "People Heart"

You will pivot between the office, the kitchen, and the ballroom, managing the "behind-the-scenes" magic that keeps our reputation flawless.

What We Are Looking For (The "Unicorn" Profile):

You have a proven track record in management, high-end hospitality, or corporate administration.
You are ultra-organized. You treat company resources as if they were your own.
You have high EQ. You can close a sale with grace and socialize with industry leaders at galas and tastings.
While we offer a stable base and commissions, you are primarily motivated by the "Art of the Event" and the desire for a professional partnership based on chemistry.
You are someone who takes the initiative and thrives on being part of a team

Why Join Us?

Flexibility: A consistent 20-hour week that respects your life-work balance.
Mentorship & Growth: Work directly with a senior-level tenured management during a major brand expansion.
Social Engagement: Represent the brand at premier Ottawa venues and industry events.
