Fulham Palace is a truly remarkable place. For centuries, this Grade I Listed building situated in extensive grounds by the Thames was the country residence of the Bishops of London. The Palace is now managed by Fulham Palace Trust, which is inspired by a vision to restore our nationally significant historic buildings and grounds to their original beauty and to provide outstanding facilities for the local community and visitors from farther afield.
Fulham Palace Trust runs a number of public events each year. Following a successful expansion of these events over the past two years, we’re looking to build on this programme further. Large scale public events currently bring approximately 15,000 visitors to the Palace each year and £45,000 net profit as well as additional donation and retail income. We’re looking to build on this, expanding our events programme both in terms of number of attendees and new events.
Reporting to the commercial and visitor experience manager (CVEM), you will develop and co-ordinate large public events and filming taking place on site.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, energetic and quick-thinking public events and filming manager. Someone full of ideas and with a passion for generating income and PRomoting Fulham Palace, helping the organisation grow and develop.
You will need to be highly motivated, organised and able to work with minimal supervision. You must be able to multi-task and manage a complex workload. You should have excellent event management and planning skills and be able to take an imaginative, strategic and creative approach to your work, including developing new events. We want someone who is commercially-minded, who can see potential and plan the steps to delivery.
We are a small team, so we need someone who can balance the strategic overview and drive to develop the events programme with the hands-on delivery.
