Event Sales Coordinator

About the Company

Le Bon Nosh is a Buckhead, Atlanta destination that combines a restaurant, market, and wine bar. Built by Chef Forough Vakili, the concept is grounded in the idea that thoughtfully prepared food can support both personal well-being and the surrounding community.

The menu changes with the seasons and draws inspiration from French cuisine, with an emphasis on carefully sourced ingredients, local growers, responsible suppliers, and openness in the food system. Across the day, the business operates as a café and market, a full-service dining room, a French wine-focused venue, and a host for private events, cooking classes, tastings, collaborative dinners, and brand activations.

The team values clear communication, efficiency, and accountability across departments in order to deliver excellent guest experiences. As the business continues to expand, it is looking for an Events Sales Coordinator to help generate event revenue, build strong client relationships, strengthen local brand presence, and turn interest into successful events.
