We are looking for a dynamic new Hall Manager to be responsible for the successful management, maintenance and daily running of our parish centre: St Mary Abbots Centre, Vicarage Gate, London, W8 4HN. This role would be ideal for someone with events experience as there is a lot of diary management: booking and building relationships with theatre companies, weekly children’s groups, local community organisations, school parents, the occasional reception for a wedding or baptism and more!

The centre consists of a permanent ballet school and car park, a theatre, long room, 2 kitchens, parish offices, several cloakrooms and a garden at the back, which all need to be managed and maintained.  The income from the hall supports the work and mission of St Mary Abbots, a large and lively church in Kensington, with close links to parish school and community. We are looking for a candidate to maintain the commercial success of the rental spaces while also enabling church events and community and charity groups at the centre.

The ideal candidate would be both self-motivated and a team player, organised, willing to work flexible hours, with good communication and diary management skills, physically fit and proactive. They should have an appreciation and understanding of the Church of England and be willing to support and develop the work carried out by St Mary Abbots.

The Corporate Partnerships Manager will play a vital role in supporting New Horizon Youth Centre’s mission by managing and growing a portfolio of valued corporate partners (>£20k) and supporters (<£20k). They will nurture these relationships to ensure meaningful, long-term support for our work with young people facing homelessness. 

This will include organising volunteering days that inspire action, delivering lunch and learn sessions that deepen understanding of our cause, and finding creative ways for partners to make a real difference. This role will also drive new business, proactively building relationships with companies who share our values and want to help young people fulfil their potential. 

In addition, they will lead on New Horizon’s events programme, developing and delivering inspiring events that connect corporate partners, high-net-worth individuals, and other supporters to the heart of our mission.
