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.

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

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
