We have an exciting opportunity for an individual to join the Group & Venue Sales Team at Beamish Museum, supporting the Team Leader to grow the museum’s earned income through private events – including corporate hire and weddings.
Beamish is an ideal place for businesses to impress clients and treat staff; and for families to celebrate a special occasion in a unique environment which is both safe and memorable – and we’re keen to really make the most of this. The job role involves working closely with clients – from businesses to couples celebrating their wedding – to help develop their ideas into something really special. You will assist in the planning and successful delivery of a wide range of events including corporate meetings, away days, ‘experience’ activity days, and exclusive evening use of the museum. We’ll also expect you to assist the Team Leader in identifying and promoting Beamish to new markets, and in seeking out new business opportunities. Additionally, you will assist the Bookings Officer with the day to day management of the bookings system, for both our school and group visits.
The role would suit an enthusiastic, hardworking individual with a proactive, ‘can do’ approach. You will have excellent attention to detail and be able to demonstrate strong verbal and written communication skills
Beamish is an Equal Opportunities employer and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.
