As a key staff member, and while having a defined role, you will be willing to assist with whatever task is needed to help the whole team meet the expectations of wedding couples and their guests. 

The successful candidate will be willing to work flexibly.  The nature of our wedding business means that some weekend work is required, particularly in the summer months and variable hours, especially during wedding delivery.  In return, we are happy to offer the right person flexible working as permitted by the workload.
