Are you passionate about telling stories and creating memorable experiences? Do you want to do that in a place of historic significance and outstanding natural beauty, with national and international standing? Come and be a part of history with us at the Chartwell portfolio.</p>
<p>We have an exciting opportunity to work for the highly innovative and creative portfolio of properties as our Experience & Visitor Programming Manager. With a range of programmes already planned for 2023, you have the opportunity to join our leadership team and help us achieve our ambition to give our audiences something great and unexpected.</p>
<p>Do not hesitate to contact the General Manager, Chelsea Pettitt, if you would like to informally discuss this role and learn more. [email protected]</p>
<p>This is a fixed term contract due to end when the previous employee returns from maternity leave.  At this point we cannot confirm exactly how long this contract will last, but it is unlikely to be more than 12 months.</p>
<p>What it's like to work here        <br />
You're supported by a passionate team of people, an encouraging environment where you can make your mark, and a culture that supports personal development and positive wellbeing.</p>
<p>As a Treasure House, you will work with the Property Curator to ensure we capture the Spirit of Place through our core interpretation and visitor journey across the site and improve our exhibition spaces and narrative for future audiences.</p>
<p>Our audiences range from young families at the weekends, to independent adults who want a unique experience and of course our traditional audiences, all who want to learn something new about our collection and sites, and leave feeling a sense of joy or discovery.</p>

<p>For 2023, you will oversee the first ever Literature Festival at Chartwell, the second Fungi Festival at Emmetts Garden (which attracted over 14,000 people last year) and the very popular Georgian Christmas programme at Quebec House. You will set up partnerships with like-minded organisations that help us deliver our programmes to maximum audiences and also drive income.
