About the Role

As a Part Time Wedding & Events Co-ordinator at Solton Manor, you will report to the Head of Marketing (HOM) and play a central role in delivering exceptional weddings, private events, corporate bookings, and overnight stays across the Manor House and Dovecote.

This is a new, hybrid role combining sales, planning, and on-the-day delivery. You will manage events from first enquiry through to execution, ensuring a seamless guest experience, strong commercial performance, and consistently high standards that protect the long-term reputation of the estate.

Key Responsibilities

Event Coordination & Delivery

You will be responsible for the end-to-end coordination and delivery of weddings, events, and stays, including:

Managing the full planning journey from booking through to event delivery
Working closely with couples, clients, internal teams, and suppliers to understand briefs, plan logistics, and coordinate all elements
Preparing and issuing detailed timelines, event schedules, and function sheets
Liaising with external suppliers (including catering, floristry, music, photography, and production) to ensure compliance with venue policies and operational requirements
Ensuring all spaces are set up accurately and thoughtfully in line with the agreed brief, with all items ordered, delivered, and positioned correctly
Attending planning meetings, food and wine tastings, and key pre-event appointments, or arranging suitable cover where required
Maintaining a strong on-site presence during weddings, events, and tastings, acting as the primary client-facing contact on the day
Ensuring timelines are adhered to and events run smoothly, with calm, professional troubleshooting as required
Maintaining high standards of housekeeping and presentation across all areas, front-of-house and behind the scenes
Ensuring health & safety, food hygiene, cash handling, and end-of-day procedures are followed at all times.
Opening and closing the venue as required, and ensuring staff presentation meets Solton Manor standards
Sales & Client Management

Working closely with the Head of Marketing and wider team, you will support conversion and revenue growth through a highly personal client journey:

Managing and responding to enquiries for weddings, private events, corporate bookings, and overnight stays across all channels
Conducting confident, welcoming venue show-arounds (including evenings where required)
Preparing accurate quotations and contracts and following up enquiries to maximise conversion
Maintaining clear, timely communication throughout the decision-making process
Accurately recording all enquiries, communications, and bookings within Sonas CRM
Proactively managing follow-ups to ensure no enquiries are missed
Supporting open days and marketing activity, including sharing insight into enquiry trends and client feedback
Capturing appropriate content to support social media and marketing, where suitable

Operational & Team Support

Working alongside the Operations and Office Manager, you will contribute to the smooth running of the estate by:

Maintaining accurate records and documentation
Supporting cost-effective staffing through well-planned rostering in collaboration with the Head of Marketing
Building strong working relationships with trusted suppliers and partners
Supporting training and development of team members where required
Contributing ideas to improve systems, workflows, and service standards
Ensuring consistently high levels of service across all events and guest touchpoints

Skills & Experience Required

Minimum 12 months’ experience coordinating weddings or events within a venue or hospitality setting
Strong sales and client relationship skills, with confidence converting enquiries into bookings
Excellent organisation, communication, and multitasking abilities
Calm, professional, and personable manner
Willingness to work flexible hours, including regular weekends during peak season
Proactive, collaborative team player with a strong sense of ownership
