  Administrator and Events Assistant responsible for the preparation and coordination of Trust events, including: weddings, fundraisers, corporate and private events.

I was responsible for the main events email inbox and conducted regular site visits with potential clients and suppliers. A key aspect of my role was to coordinate the set-up and break down of events in accordance with CHGT procedures and standards. I also ensured the smooth and efficient delivery of all events by maintaining internal relations and regularly liaising with the Head Gardener, Security Warden and English Heritage. Management of event paperwork was key and included: function sheets, contract letters and booking agreements. All suppliers prior to each event were contacted to explain the heritage nature of the site and importance of protecting both the Grade 1 listed House & surrounding Gardens. At the end of the 2016 season in late September I had organised and led 27 weddings, a charity gala and a number of smaller private events and cricket matches.
