In the past few years Mistwood Golf Club has grown into a small hospitality company: JBM Hospitality. Not only does the company manage a high-end, semi-private golf course, but also three restaurants (McWethys TavernRomeoville, McWethys Sports BarBolingbrook, The JamesGeneva), two banquet facilities (The Great Hall at Mistwood and The Grand Ballroom at Joliet Union Station) and a sports dome (Mistwood Golf Dome). While each property is a different concept, they share one important characteristic: each is an exciting place where enthusiastic people come together to create a special experience.

We are looking for somebody to sell the operation of banquets and events. Most of the events we host are significant life events for our clients and their guests, and we need somebody who understands, appreciates, and contributes to these moments. In short, we need someone who will play a key role on our team.

Yes, there are certain requirements. We are looking for somebody who has experience selling events in the hospitality industry and has experience working alongside a sales team. But the most important characteristics we are looking for are passion, energy, and determination to help us build a brand to match our exciting future.
