Sentient Workspace & Events is expanding our event offerings, and we're looking for an experienced Event Sales Manager to help us grow this exciting part of our business.

Our vision is to create elegant, elevated, and memorable events backed by exceptional service. From weddings and milestone celebrations to corporate gatherings and sophisticated private events, we want every client to feel confident that their event is in capable hands from their first conversation with us through the final guest's departure.

This is a full-time position with a base salary of $60,000–$65,000 plus monthly commissions on event sales and meeting rooms, plus additional bonus opportunities.
