Petros Kastritseas

A successful hospitality manager with over 6+ years’ expertise in luxury environments, private members’ clubs, and high-end dining. Proven success in managing high-profile events, leading teams, event management, client relationship management, and sales-driven event delivery. I have.
a forward-thinking mind-set with a strategic and creative vision, consistently aligning ideas with long-term business objectives and opportunities.

With over 6 years’ experience in luxury hospitality and event management -  as the event manager at the prestigious Athenaeum Club - I bring a proactive mind-set, a creative eye for detail, and a proven ability to manage complex events from contract to completion.

Currently, I oversee all aspects of end-to-end project management, including event sales and logistics. I’ve successfully delivered over 300 high-profile club events, ensuring seamless and memorable experiences for members and their guests. My role involves coordinating with AV teams, external suppliers and vendors, organisers, and liaise directly with clients to plan and execute a wide variety of events – consistently under budget and within dedicated timelines. By designing personalised event packages and sales proposals, I’ve driven revenue growth while delivering tailored solutions to meet member expectations. 

I was promoted from restaurant operations into event management as part of a strategic initiative on behalf of the club to revitalise a once underperforming department. This transition allowed me to prove my strengths in guest experience, team leadership, strategic sales negotiation, and operational oversight to a broader scope. My ability to anticipate client needs, together with meticulous attention to detail, ensures that every event exceeds expectations.
