Message

At Taj Bengal Kolkata, I manage day-to-day banquet facility operations for corporate and social events. I negotiate pricing, prepare proposals and contracts, and help guests select menus.

I also work with the Banquet, Culinary, and other operational departments to support smooth event execution. I conduct weekly Banquet Event meetings with the Executive Chef and pre-shift meetings with Captains and Servers, and continually meet and exceed revenue goals.

Previously, at Hotel Hindustan International, I managed banquet operations, prospected new business through outside calls and networking, and upsold menu items. My experience also includes catering sales, restaurant management, business development, and corporate relationships.
