We are extraordinary people creating extraordinary experiences. #extraordinarytogether

Part of The Bicester Collection, Bicester Village doesn't do ordinary. Set in the heart of rural Oxfordshire, well connected across the UK, our outdoor, pedestrianised Village is home to more than 160 boutiques, a celebrated food and drink scene, and a team that refuses to stand still.

The Guest Services team is hiring a Guest Experience Duty Manager.

• Opening and closing the Village and making sure key guest facilities, including the Concierge Centre, Train Station and Coach Group Welcome Centre, are running to plan
• Leading daily inspections and morning briefings, working alongside Directors to keep standards high across the Village
• Managing the team rota and liaising with suppliers to ensure the operation is always fully staffed
• Resolving guest issues in the moment and following up to ensure a positive outcome

What we're looking for

We foster a culture of winning together, and we work hard to ensure everyone is supported to succeed. To thrive in this role, you'll bring:

We're proud to be a diverse and inclusive employer, and we mean it. The best ideas come from people who don't all think the same, and we welcome applications from every background. Come as you are.

Bicester Village exists to be experienced in the real world. To be actual, not virtual. To be lived.
