A Food Service Worker typically works in restaurants or cafeterias, focusing on serving customers and maintaining service flow. The roles overlap in food safety and customer interaction but differ mainly in scope and setting.

We believe the next big idea can come from anyone, and we cultivate talent, expertise, and vision that continually push the industry forward.Designing and catering magnificent events isn’t just what we do—it’s who we are.

Job Summary

At Catering by Design, we don't just plan events — we craft experiences that people remember forever. Whether it's a once-in-a-lifetime wedding, a milestone birthday, or a corporate celebration done right, we show up with creativity, heart, and an obsession for the details. If you're someone who thrives in the beautiful chaos of live events, loves bringing big ideas to life, and gets genuinely excited when a perfectly executed timeline comes together — we want to meet you.

Who We Are

We're a team of passionate hospitality professionals who believe that making people happy is serious business. We lead with creativity, lean on collaboration, and celebrate what makes each of us different. We're committed to building an inclusive environment where everyone — guests, clients, and teammates alike — feels welcome, seen, and valued.

What You'll Do

  • Own the full event production process from contract to close, bringing every detail to life after the Event Designer sets the vision
  • Build detailed execution plans, timelines, and diagrams that your on-site teams can actually execute flawlessly
  • Coordinate all the moving pieces — rentals, alcohol purveyors, entertainment, and everything in between
  • Secure signed contracts, deposits, and complete event details with precision and professionalism
  • Partner closely with internal teammates to ensure every event runs like a well-rehearsed performance
  • Show up on-site, lead your team with energy and purpose, and troubleshoot anything that comes your way with a calm, solutions-first mindset

  • Sharp organizational skills and a love of a well-built timeline
  • Vendor management experience and strong relationship-building instincts
  • A collaborative, creative spirit with a high standard for quality
  • Flexibility to work evenings and weekends — because that's when the magic happens
  • A genuine passion for making people happy through extraordinary experiences

Who Thrives Here

You're a hospitality enthusiast who sees every event as a blank canvas. You're energized by people, driven by details, and you don't flinch when the unexpected happens. You bring your whole, authentic self to work — and you love being part of a team that does the same.

Additional important perks & details:

Please note - Initial salary of $58000 plus event sales commission (paid biweekly); compensation shifts to $53,000 base plus commission after 3 months. Total earning potential: $70000 - $95000+. Monthly gas/car stipend provided. Must be able to work weekends throughout the busy season of May thru October. This role is hybrid. And by hybrid we mean home office, in office, and where the events beckon in the surrounding Denver market!
