Esher, United Kingdom National Trust Full time

We're looking for a General Manager to lead the internationally significant Surrey Landscapes sites.
This includes Claremont Landscape Gardens, Winkworth Arboretum and Runnymede, as well as The Homewood, a masterpiece of Modernist design.
You'll oversee a dedicated team of Heads of Department across various disciplines, developing a positive working environment for everyone in your team.
Together, you'll deliver the best possible visitor experience whilst ensuring excellence in maintaining the places under your leadership.
This is a fixed term contract due to end when the previous employee returns from maternity leave.
At this point we cannot confirm exactly how long this contract will last, but it is unlikely to be more than 12 months.
Please note, the advertised salary is inclusive of the Outer-London Weighting Allowance of £3,315.
Interview date: 18 December 2024 What it's like to work here: As part of the London and South East region, you'll be working alongside other General Managers caring for similarly high profile and complex property businesses.

What you'll be doing: A champion for inclusion, you'll commit to diversifying your teams.
You'll provide inspirational leadership for staff and volunteers, ensuring a collaborative environment where people feel valued.
Whilst upholding excellent conservation, horticulture and land management standards, you'll also be responsible for the ongoing development of excellent visitor experiences.
You'll work in partnership with people and organisations outside of the Trust, to make the biggest impacts for our places and our supporters.
You'll be accountable for income delivery to fund the property's extensive conservation needs as well as its development potential.
You'll also play a significant role in the major projects that are in progress.
Who we're looking for: You don't need to have all of the knowledge, skills and experience listed in the role profile; this is just to provide a full picture of what's possible in this role.
We'd love to hear from you if you have: Experience of running a large visitor-facing business An ability to lead and motivate a team to deliver an exceptional visitor experience Excellent project management skills An ability to effectively communicate at all levels, including presenting to internal and external audiences Effective prioritisation and problem-solving skills Experience of managing budgets up to £1 million plus income, across a number of departments A deep understanding of compliance / health and safety Dedication to creating an inclusive culture The package: The National Trust has the motto 'For everyone, for ever' at its heart.
We're working hard to create an inclusive culture, where everyone feels they belong.
It's important that our people reflect and represent the diversity of the communities and audiences we serve.
We welcome and value difference, so when we say we're for everyone, we want everyone to be welcome in our teams too.
