About Us: Best Impressions Caterers is a premier catering and event planning company dedicated to creating unforgettable experiences for our clients in the Charlotte area. We are seeking a dynamic and detail-oriented Event Manager to join our team and help us deliver exceptional events.

Why Work for Best Impressions? Best Impressions is one of the largest and most successful private catering companies in the nation, known for maintaining a "mom and pop" company culture that fosters creativity and innovation.

Our headquarters in Charlotte serves as the hub of our operations, but we also have sister companies in Raleigh, NC (Rocky Top Catering) and Charleston, SC (Duvall Catering & Events), where we are actively renovating and opening new venue spaces. This expansion provides significant growth opportunities for our team as our company's reach continues to grow.
