About The Role

This is not a “business as usual” brand role. It’s a rare chance to take something truly important and reshape how it’s seen, felt and experienced by thousands of visitors every year.

The visitor attraction is in Staffordshire; the central team is in London. You will be expected to split your time between locations to ensure you are fully embedded into both teams. There will be an expectation that at key periods that you will spend more time in Staffordshire managing implementation and install on site.

You would be classed as a hub-worker; therefore, the minimum expectation is two days per week working in person at a hub and flexibility for working remotely/at home when not on site. Either location would count as office-based days. On occasion you may be required to work flexibly outside of normal office or opening hours to support the project.
