Fancy working for one of Britain’s best loved landmarks. Well, look no further, the world-famous Blackpool Tower is looking to hire an Assistant Events Manager to support with the attractions events operations and guide clients every step of the way, ensuring an efficient full cycle planning service.
What you need
- The confidence to support and deliver large events and functions, including food and beverage, event logistics, banqueting, music, and dance
- Experience in working with third party suppliers
- Passion and dedication to deliver a high standard of customer service
- Strong leadership skills
- Good communication skills and attention to detail
It’s safe to say that no day is the same. Working alongside the Events Operations Manager to ensure that each event we deliver has an unarguable wow factor! With 11 different rooms within 5 amazing attractions, they can host from 2 guests to over 2000 guests, meaning there is a broad spectrum of events to balance.
You could find yourself coordinating Bongo Bingo or a Northern Soul Dance Event in the Tower Ballroom one day and a Company conference at the Top of the Tower the next. And of course, that’s not to mention the glitter and sparkle that’s required when Strictly comes to town! Whatever the event, you will be collaborating closely with clients, ensuring a constant delivery of operational excellence and customer service.
This permanent full-time role will be delivered mainly during business hours, however, due to the nature of the industry you’ll be expected to work regular evenings, weekends and bank holidays depending on what events they have scheduled.
Alongside a fun and engaging atmosphere, they also offer:
- A salary of £23,000 per annum
- 28 days holiday including bank holidays
- 25% discount in our retail shops and restaurants and 40% off LEGO online
- Merlin Magic Pass – giving you free tickets to all attractions worldwide for you, your family, and friends every year
