They manage the Visitor Operations Supervisors and the Visitor Operations Assistants and endeavour to provide a world class experience and service for all our visitors and deliver an outstanding audience experience.  The Assistant Visitor Operations Managers are also responsible to ensuring all areas are safe, secure, and welcoming for visitors in accordance with current Health and Safety guidelines.

The successful candidates will be experienced customer-facing managers who have led operational management of fast-paced teams in a similar environment. They will be effective and commercially-focused managers, able to engage and motivate teams whilst also seeking out income-generating and cost-saving opportunities.
