## Description

We are once again running our Event Assistant summer placement scheme at Goodwood. This unique opportunity allows you to join the Event Operations Team at the heart of delivering our spectacular headline events; Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival. As an Event Assistant, you will support our team of Event Planners to build the Festival of Speed, one of the largest greenfield event sites in the UK, before moving on to enjoy the build, theatrics and set dressing of the Goodwood Revival.

In this exciting and fast-paced role, every day will be different. You will join a fun and passionate team, gaining exposure into the operations and logistics involved with delivering world-class events, and leave with an abundance of experience under your belt.

The role is fixed-term, from May until the end of September. Due to the nature of events and the requirements of this role, there are some restrictions on when holiday can be taken. Normal working hours are 8.30am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday, with extended hours and some weekend working required in the lead up to each of the events.

We offer a range of benefits, including discounted products and services from across the estate, free gym and health club membership, and a beautifully unique environment.
