Ensure maintenance issues are resolved promptly.
Manage budgets and staffing costs carefully.

Takes ownership.
Notices the details.
Holds high standards.
Is commercially aware.
Makes decisions.
Doesn't wait for problems to solve themselves.
Can manage multiple priorities.

Proven track record of delivering budgets.
Strong project delivery experience.
Experience managing teams and performance.
Excellent organisational skills.

The Opportunity

Kents Cavern has significant potential.

The successful candidate will play a key role in growing visitor numbers beyond 200,000 annually, enhancing the visitor experience and strengthening Kents Cavern's position as one of the UK's leading heritage attractions.

We're looking for someone who combines commercial awareness with operational discipline, someone who can take ownership, maintain momentum and ensure that great ideas become reality.

If you are someone who thrives on delivery, accountability and high standards, we'd love to hear from you.
