Events Planner

We are a team of people who love and look after six of the most wonderful palaces in the world. We create space for spirits to stir and be stirred.

We are looking for two dedicated Event Planners (one permanent and one on a temporary 12-month maternity cover) to join the busy team working to maximise the commercial potential of Kensington Palace, The Banqueting House and Kew Palace.

A friendly and efficient team that consistently produces events to delight our clients and bring them back for more, we are seeking a like-minded individual with a passion and creativity for events in these unique venues.  

Whether you’re focusing on sales, organisational detail, financial documents (or anything in between) your contact will always have accurate information and ultimate confidence in your ability. 

You must be a self-starter and a quick learner with the ability to hit the ground running. Possessing the ability to work on your own initiative, you must be flexible and adaptable, with the ability to engage personably with all stake holders. Someone who can work well in a team environment, you’ll also have excellent IT, communication, and interpersonal skills. 

You will also have proven experience of selling a venue and running events on an operational level. In-depth knowledge of the industry is essential and an interest for British history is favourable. 

Microsoft and database management skills will be required, along with experience of working with approved suppliers and using financial and diary systems such as Kinetix and E-fin.
Your attendance at events will be required as you will be responsible for ensuring all goes to plan and that all the client’s requirements are met. 
This will involve evenings and weekends, bank holidays, along with early mornings and late evenings as and when the events schedule requires it. 

Closing date: 5th June 2022
