JED Events is one of Switzerland's leading event locations—and so much more: a stage for emotional experiences, a place full of energy, passion, and enjoyment. We create unforgettable moments in our former NZZ printing plant in Schlieren and with our catering concepts Eve's Kitchen and Mate Catering.

What you bring to the table – no compromises:

• Solid education (hotel management school or event management)
• Several years of experience in event management, the hotel industry, or banqueting – essential
• Business fluent German and English skills
• Organizational skills for parallel projects
• Strong customer focus, high quality standards, and an extra dose of passion
• Strong communication skills, confident presentation skills, and a professional demeanor
• Proficient in MS Office – and if you are a banqueting professional, all the better

Your everyday life – as diverse as you are:

• Sales & consulting: passionate sales and coordination of our event spaces for meetings and events
• Customer service: conducting consultations, ensuring smooth processes, and generating enthusiasm
• Shared responsibility for the smooth running of corporate and private events
• Organization: creating forecasts, capacity utilization and room plans, and maintaining the booking system
• Administrative tasks: correspondence, accounting, controlling, and data maintenance
• Representation: appearances at trade fairs, customer events, and industry events

• A workplace with soul: 2,500 m² of event space, five locations, trendy restaurant for daily team lunches
• Modern office right next to Schlieren train station (with plenty of blue zones if you prefer to drive)
• Option to work from home
• A team that doesn't lose its sense of humor, even when it's 40°C in the kitchen or there are 40 pages in the event dossier
• Freshly cooked team meals every day & the best coffee in town – not just a perk, but a cult favorite
• Support for further training
• Attractive discounts at the Boulderlounge, partner hotels, and fleet discounts at our partner garage

And everything except what is usual for the industry:

• Virtually no weekend work—if any, it is the exception rather than the rule
• Guaranteed quiet holiday periods and company holidays
