Event Sales Manager

Hyatt Vancouver Downtown Alberni, soon to be rebranded as Park Hyatt Vancouver, is a luxury hotel located in the heart of Vancouver's exclusive shopping and cultural district. Steps away from designer boutiques, top-tier dining, world-class galleries, and the scenic waterfront, the hotel features expansive rooms and suites with stunning city and mountain views. Guests can enjoy a range of upscale amenities, including the serene Orrin Spa, an outdoor pool, fine dining experiences, and sophisticated event spaces.

Renowned for its personalized service, the property has been awarded the prestigious 2025 MICHELIN Key. After a multi-million-dollar redesign, the transformed Park Hyatt Vancouver will redefine modern luxury with refined elegance and an elevated sense of place.
