Job description

We're looking for two Events & Marketing Assistants to join our small, busy team at Portsmouth Cathedral. It's a varied, practical role that sits right at the heart of our commercial operations - coordinating venue hire bookings, setting up for evening concerts, supporting licensed events, and everything in between. Alongside this supporting the marketing for our events and the wider organisation as a whole.

No two weeks look quite the same, and roughly half the role takes place during evenings and weekends. The pattern of hours will vary week to week in line with the Cathedral's events programme. In weeks where no events are scheduled, the postholders will work standard office hours.  There are two posts available with a proposal to work three days each of 21 hours.

Portsmouth Cathedral has been at the heart of Old Portsmouth since 1180, and it remains one of the city's most distinctive and active spaces - a working place of worship, a heritage venue, and a hub for concerts, community events, and private hire all at once. If you're someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, enjoys variety, and likes the idea of working somewhere genuinely unlike any other, this could be exactly the right role for you.


Benefits:

  • Holiday: The annual leave allowance is based on 25 days plus two 'given' days over Christmas to provide cover, and all statutory public holidays (which may need to be taken in lieu) pro rata.
  • Pension: 7% employer contribution and 1% non-contributory pension.
  • Training Provided: Safeguarding, UK GDPR, First Aid, Challenge 25, Manual Handling
  • Employees are offered membership of Healthshield Cash Plan

Essential Skills and Experience

  • Strong organisational and administrative skills, with excellent attention to detail. 

  • Good communication skills, with the ability to liaise confidently with clients, suppliers, volunteers, and colleagues. 

  • Physical ability to undertake manual handling tasks, including moving heavy furniture, staging, and equipment 

  • IT literatcy with proficiency in Microsoft 365 and confidence using digital booking or CRM systems. 

  • A proactive and adaptable approach, with a willingness to contribute across both administrative and operational tasks. 

  • Understanding of basic health and safety regulations relevant to events. 

  • Ability to work flexibly, including evenings and weekends, in line with a rolling rota. 

  • Comfortable working within a faith-based organisation and supportive of its Christian values. 

Portsmouth Cathedral is an Equal Opportunities Employer and a member of Inclusive Church.

Safeguarding. The Cathedral takes the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults very seriously, and practices Safer Recruitment for all roles (both paid and voluntary), the successful applicant will be required to complete a Basic DBS check, and face-to-face or online training as required.
