Overview
Greater Fort Lauderdale is well on its way to becoming a world-class meetings destination. From our convention center expansion project and bustling cityscape, to our beautiful beaches, majestic waterways and endless leisure activities, groups of all sizes are discovering the many benefits of meeting in Fort Lauderdale.
The newly-updated pre-existing center with its expanded exhibit space is now open, and work continues through 2025 on the remainder of the $1.3 billion expansion project. When completed, the Convention Center will boast more than 1.2 million square feet, including a 350,000 square feet contiguous exhibition hall, a new building featuring a 65,000 sq. ft. waterfront ballroom, an expansive outdoor plaza with restaurants, a concert venue and landscaping to create a parklike atmosphere, and the new 801-room Omni headquarters hotel.
The Greater Fort Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center seeks an accomplished and visionary General Manager to lead and oversee all aspects of the facility’s operations, strategy, revenue, and guest experience. This role requires a seasoned leader with financial expertise and hospitality knowledge to position the center as a premier destination for events and exhibitions, while addressing the current and future needs of the facility. The General Manager will be the primary spokesperson for the convention center and will manage relationships with clients, partners, the community, and the newly opened 800-room Omni Hotel.
