We are an events company based in Porto, which runs both Porto Events and Douro Weddings.
We are currently looking for a wedding planner to join our team.
You do not need to have experience in wedding planning, but you should have some experience with running events and we are not looking for someone fresh out of university.
You do not need any specific qualifications, other than a degree.
95% of our clients are from overseas, so you should speak a very high level of English, but you must also be fluent in Portuguese.
Having a passion for northern Portugal and Portuguese culture is very important, but equally relevant is that you are extremely well-organised and detail oriented.
Your work would include direct client contact, negotiating with vendors, finding creative ideas for clients and working at the weddings themselves;
you must be prepared towork very flexible hours and you would have to work some weekends when we have weddings on.
There will also be opportunities to work with our corporate events team at Porto Events.
You would work both from our office in central Porto and from home - you will be working alongside experience wedding planners, but will have to take on increasing amounts of responsibility as you grow into the job.
Please note that we are only interested in taking on someone who has every intention to stay with our company over the long term.Tips:
Provide a summary of the role, what success in the position looks like, and how this role fits into the organization overall.Please send in your CV and covering letter to ******.
