About the Role

The Senior Manager within Entertainments & Leisure will be accountable for the smooth planning and operational delivery of our entertainment and leisure proposition across family breaks, big weekender breaks and resort‑based events at our Bognor Regis Resort.

From an entertainment perspective, this includes leading all activity for the entertainment teams covering Redcoats, performers, and our technical support teams. Managing product delivery for activities, events, large‑scale production shows, intellectual property (IP) content, varied visiting artistes and seasonal product.

On the leisure side, this includes overseeing our swimming pool, fairground and indoor soft‑play proposition for these energetic, guest‑favourite areas. Our teams pride themselves on bringing our culture alive every day to give our guests the best experience during their holiday.

On a day‑to‑day basis you will lead the team to deliver a memorable experience to our guests, focusing on fantastic guest experience, high service standards and delivery of budget. This will involve setting and rolling out strategy for the Entertainment & Leisure team, while also stepping in to support the teams operationally when needed. Health and safety operation and compliance to all relevant legislation is a non‑negotiable priority.

Creating an environment that allows your team to perform at their best and deliver an amazing experience will be high on your priorities, as will constantly being on the lookout for opportunities.

About You

We are looking for someone who lives and breathes guest experience and has strong experience in a similar role within an entertainment or leisure environment.

You should have excellent event‑management experience and experience in building relationships with external industry experts and suppliers. Working knowledge of health and safety procedures, processes, relevant regulations and legislation is desirable.

Strong, guest‑facing experience is essential, as is the ability to respond to a range of queries and, sometimes, complaints directly.

You should hold an analytical mind with the ability to forecast and manage costs – balancing financials with guest experience at the heart of decisions.

You must be able to set strategic direction for your team while being happy to be involved in day‑to‑day operations, working closely alongside your teams to manage any challenges that arise.

Excellent communication skills and confidence engaging with teams at all levels are required. A curious mindset and willingness to challenge the status‑quo are also valued.
