This role is a fantastic opportunity for someone who truly thrives on high-energy, multifaceted environments and has a natural flair for leadership.

This position is made even more exciting by its setting, home to the world’s largest collection of historic British cars, and part of an Educational Charitable Trust. It isn’t just about managing events; it’s about being at the heart of a vibrant organisation where heritage meets conference and events delivery. If you’re naturally agile, organised, and a confident communicator who loves to motivate a team, this role could be exactly the kind of dynamic challenge you’re looking for.

In addition to your leadership skills, you’d be expected to set high operational standards, continuously engage with a diverse range of clients, and adapt seamlessly in a busy, sometimes demanding work environment. This is an ideal role for someone who is not only looking to further their career in conference and events management but also wants to be part of an established and friendly team in a truly unique setting.
