Banquet Houseman

Essential Duties

As banquet houseman, you are responsible for maintaining the cleanliness and organization of any banquet rooms, hallways, storage and service areas.

You must routinely inventory and care for banquet supplies such as linens, chairs, china, glassware, flatware and decorations.

You are required to set up the banquet room per the specification of a banquet events order, and then reset the room to its original state after the event has concluded.

During the event, duties include assisting servers, transporting tables and equipment, reporting maintenance issues to management, and providing requested information to banquet patrons.

Additional Duties

You may be asked by management to engage in duties that are related to your position even though they are not routine.

These include helping assemble temporary dance floors, podiums and other structures; upselling venue services and amenities to guests; relaying data to outside departments; and assisting audio-visual personnel in setting up equipment like speakers and monitors.

In some cases, you may also be tasked with helping transport food, beverages, decorations and equipment to an off-premises event location.
