Job Description
We are looking for a Weddings Manager to join the team at Hampton Court Castle. The successful candidate will help manage the growing number of weddings and private functions held in the castle. This will be an exciting opportunity to form part of a growing team and play a role in shaping the future of Hampton Court Castle.
In this role, you will be involved throughout the event process, from initial contact to managing the event on the day. The ideal candidate will have relevant or transferable experience, including good sales and organisational skills as well as an excellent understanding of practical event management.
This is a full-time position but given the nature of the role and industry, the hours worked will vary from week to week and will include evening and weekend work depending on the events being managed. The successful candidate must therefore be flexible and energetic, with a great eye for detail.
The salary offered will be competitive and partly dependent on experience level.
Location: Hope under Dinmore, Herefordshire HR6 0PN
