As with any events role, each day is very different! One day I could be coordinating someoneâs dream wedding, the next I could be showing couples around our beautiful venue. As one of the events team managers, I also spend a lot of time working with the team of event coordinators and office team to ensure the smooth running of the venue. This can include taking phone calls, answering emails, pitching creative ideas for events and general day to day admin tasks. No two days are the same but thatâs what makes my job so exciting.
The location! There are not many jobs where you get to work within such a picturesque location. Nestled on the border of Staffordshire and Cheshire it means the views are beautiful. Itâs the perfect place to work and in the summertime, itâs so nice to be surrounded by rolling countryside.
My proudest achievement is always seeing our annual Christmas Ball come together. I was very much involved with pitching the creative idea for our 2016 Nutcracker Christmas Ball and our 2017 Alpine Ball and I hope to continue to have an involvement with such a great event! I thoroughly enjoy every aspect of the event from pitching the initial idea for theming, sourcing the entertainment, suppliers and decorations, to running the event across the two nights. I always feel a huge sense of pride seeing everything come together on the night.
My top tip for a brilliant event is to enjoy it and have some fun! Planning an event can often seem daunting but embrace the planning stages, research lots of suppliers, make concept boards and pick your favourite ideas. Seeing all of your ideas brought to life and the event coming together is so much fun.
I wanted to join the Heaton House Events team as I had always heard such great things about the team and the amazing venue and wanted to be a part of it. After studying a BA(Hons) in Events Management at Liverpool John Moores University I continued to ignite my passion for working within the events industry and knew that Heaton House Events was where I wanted to be.
When I saw the role advertised I knew it was something I would love to do. After spending many years working within the hospitality industry and really wanted to concentrate on events.
Heaton House was the perfect place to do this. I loved the fact it was family run just appealed to me.
Anything and everything! The days just fly by. One day I can be in the office answering emails and showing couples the venue then the next day I can be running an event! Itâs all about helping all our clients, giving them a stress free day so that they can enjoy themselves!
The variety within the job, you never know what may happen when you arrive at work! Never are two days the same. Also working alongside such a brilliant team, they are supportive and more friendly than you can possibly imagine.
It should be reworded âproudest momentsâ as every time I read a review or a thank you card from past clients saying how grateful they are for everything the team does, it always makes me proud that we achieved and exceeded their expectations! Nothing beats that feeling.
Just do it! You wonât regret it, you will be working for a great company, alongside an amazing team in a beautiful location! What more I can say?!
The key is organisation. Ensure you have a super organised team who can plan and run an event for you!
I have always wanted to work within the events industry, I studied Events Management at University which only increased my desire. As soon as I saw the job advertised, I knew it would be the perfect job for me and I was right. Heaton House is a fantastic company to work for.
I spend my day doing a wide variety of tasks as a Junior Event Coordinator. I could be showing our lovely couples around our fantastic venue, answering emails and phone calls, conducting a final meeting with my assigned couples or running their wedding day for them.
The best thing about working at Heaton House Events is the people I work with. Furthermore, that every day is different, no wedding or office day is ever the same.
My proudest achievements whilst working at Heaton House Events was when I got my first confirmed booking after showing them around the venue and running my first wedding here.
Heaton House is like no other wedding venue, be prepared to never stop learning with no two days ever being the same. You will work with a great team, who are always there to help you and push you forward to succeed in everything you do. It is not a decision you will regret.
To be organised with your planning, ensure the registrars and suppliers are booked in plenty of time to ease the stress for you. But most of all to have fun whilst doing it, if you are enjoying yourselves so will your guests and that makes a brilliant event.
I had just graduated from University in a subject I then didnât want to continue with and I was very much lost. My brother spotted a receptionist role at our local wedding venue and so I went for it. The team here took me under their wing, looked at my skills and have now developed and trained me in marketing, and Iâve never looked back.
I am absolutely loving my role in marketing! My day consists of scouting through stunning photographs from the weddings that have taken place here, Pinteresting, hash-tagging, writing blogs and content for the website and then when we have guests stay I look after them and check them in and out ensuring they have a lovely stay. I also love showing newly engaged couples around the venue, it's amazing to be a part of their wedding planning experience.
There's never a quiet moment here but if you ever have something you need help on, there is always a helping hand. It's all about being a team here and it was fantastic to stand on the stage with my colleagues at The Wedding Industry Awards and accept the Best Events Team in the North West!
When I joined Heaton House Events I was very much a city girl, patterned fashion wellies and fancy fur coats and hats, and I had a huge fear of animals! After a few months here you can now catch me walking through fields with sheep and stood in the middle of cows with a bull staring at me! I DIDN'T EVEN RUN AWAY!
Come along, give 100%, use your skills and they will be put to good use and there is room to progress internally.
Not everything in life comes easy, but with hard work and a helping hand, anything is possible! You have just got to make sure you enjoy it along the way.
As a mobile DJ of 15 years I have always loved creating a good party atmosphere and seeing people enjoy themselves, so when I realised we lived in a beautiful venue it seemed a great opportunity to not only share this space but also give people a great time with friends and family. As it was such a great experience, people wanted us to recreate it at other venues and events so the events company was born!
Dreaming about the next project to further enhance the services we offer! Feeding my girls (the cows, yes, it is still a 165 acre working farm!) and supporting our amazing team in whatever shape or form they might require.
I love working with our team. The mix of staff and their different skills and personalities makes it very interesting and diverse. Its great to watch the younger members develop their skills and abilities throughout the years too.
My proudest moment was when we were announced winners of the Best wedding and events team in the North West in the wedding industry awards. We have always believed that we try hard to do a great job but it is really nice to be recognised for it. Another proud moment has to be the annual festival, Triplefest. Last year we handed over ÂŁ21,000 to charity and it's a great feeling to know the money is going to great causes. As its all ran by volunteers, it brings the local community together, and some neighbours get to meet each other for the first time!
Listen to those who have done it before, experience speaks volumes!!!
We opened up our family farm to couples for them to use as a wedding venue back in 1999. As the business grew and grew, it seemed like natural progression to improve the service that we offered and started the events management company, Heaton House Events.
I love meeting couples and showing them around my beautiful venue. When I get the time I love being creative, so I bake our famous home-made banana loaf for our accommodation guests, and enjoy titivating the water gardens. I also support the laundry, housekeeping and venue teams to ensure everything is finished to a high standard.
Working with such a great team to make sure that every event is brilliant, also, I don't have to travel far to work!
Not only watching it grow from a farm, and hosting our first wedding to a successful, busy company, but winning The Wedding Industry Awards best Events Team in the North West for two years running!
We all work together to have fun and to make the best day possible for all of our brides and grooms. Also, we love smiling faces!
Have fun and enjoy it!
I have been involved in events since I was 4, it's in my blood! My parents organised a family fun day and since then it has grown in to a 3 day weekend called Triplefest. Back in 2000, my family took the decision to diversify the farm to a wedding venue and I can remember getting off the school bus, running in to the barn with my bags dropping them on the floor and help my Mum place favours neatly around the table. Needless to say, I have a keen eye for detail and enjoy wandering around the events taking place making sure everything is set up perfectly.
It really varies! One day I can be researching a new system to improve our services that we offer, to another where I can be launching it!
I also look after our on-line presence such as keeping the website up to date with images that photographers send us of past events, and of course social media, which now makes up a massive part of the service that we offer. Our clients are always messaging or tweeting me and I love replying back to them, so if you ever wondered who it was replying; now you know!
The people! Whether it's my colleagues, or clients - they are all great!
Literally starting from the bottom and working through many different stages, I've had many roles through my time with Heaton House Events, I've developed them and they've developed me.
My most recent achievement would have to be when we won The Wedding Industry Award for best Events Team in the North West, not only in 2015, but 2016 also - so proud!
Come and have a look around, meet the team and see what all the fuss is about!
I'm going to have to do two...
1 - Don't follow blogs or magazines word for word, after all, they are writers and might not have much event experience. The best advice can be achieved from chatting to suppliers and asking for their extensive knowledge, they know who they work well with to achieve the best results.
2 - Create a brand. Some of my favourite events have featured a unique monogram. This has been on the event invites, which really sets the scene with the guests, and even featured on the dining table stationery and on gobo lighting looks great too!
I knew Heaton House through reputation as being a fantastic wedding venue, and knew Mick, the owner, through the Young Farmers group and knew he would be a great boss! So took the step to apply.
We care greatly about our accommodation rooms and it is my job to ensure the rooms are serviced correctly and to the highest standards ahead of our guests checking in.
The team, every day is great as we always have a laugh together and pull together when the job needs to be done. If you ever need anything, there is always someone happy to help.
I am proud of every review stating the quality of our accommodation as this is the biggest reward we could have; guest satisfaction.
Expect the unexpected because every day is different.
Plan carefully so that on the day you can relax and we can ensure everything goes without a hitch.
I had a recommendation from a friend who already worked here and told me what a wonderful place it was to work so I applied straight away!
As I am mainly responsible for the bar, I need to make sure that we offer an amazing range of products that are well presented by a team who are passionate about great service.
The best thing about Heaton House Events is the team work, every single department throughout the venue; the laundry, office, events, venue and housekeeping, everyone has to pull together to ensure our couples have an amazing day from start to finish.
I was overwhelmed to be offered the position of Hospitality and Bar Manager after only working for the company for such a short time. But my personal proudest moment was riding a segway by Madrenaline Activities at my first staff night, my legs were quivering but I did it and ended up in an egg and spoon race, it was fantastic! Scary! But fantastic!
Come and have a look around. I knew it was a place I really wanted to work from the moment I came for my interview.
Make sure you relax and enjoy your day. Itâs our job to take care of everything so make sure you make the most of every moment.
Having moved from Yorkshire to the local village, Heaton, I was told about the events venue and thought it would be an interesting and diverse job - and I was certainly right!
My role as a supervisor at Heaton House Farm is to organise the safe turnaround of the venue from the previous dayâs wedding. From having sparkling toilets to setting up stages for live bands and everything in between.
I work with the wedding coordinator on the day of the wedding to ensure the expectations of the bride and groom are more than fulfilled.
Working with a professional and motivated team - we get the job done and we do it right!
Come along with an open mind and ready to join our friendly atmosphere.
First time, On time, Every Time!
I wanted to join Heaton House Events to work as part of a fantastic team preparing and working a variety of events for a well-known business where I would be able to do a variety of jobs.
Some days I can be setting up the venue for the events. On the event day itself, I might be with the housekeeping team turning the accommodation rooms around ready for the next guests. Or you might catch me behind the bar serving drinks or even cooking breakfast the following morning! Every day is different for me!
I love working with the team, and I also really enjoy seeing the varied events that we get to be a part of.
I joined the Heaton House Events team on a part-time basis and was so proud to be offered a full-time role leading and supervising the venue team.
You will have an amazing time, everyday is something new and exciting!
Give the Coordinators lots of information about your event so that we can provide you with the day of your dreams!
I wanted to join a reputable company that offered more than the "norm" restaurant/hotel style experience.
My key role is to supervise, coordinate and work alongside the housekeeping team in the daily operations for the accommodation, to ensure all of our 15 bedrooms are serviced to an exceptional standard. I regularly inspect the bedrooms for quality of cleanliness and record my findings for reporting purposes to management. I keep a close eye on repairs and upgrades when needed and record/follow up as applicable. Other tasks include scheduling team rotas, checking and ordering stock, training new and existing team members and keeping the team up-to-date on any new procedures or issues... A little coffee drinking can also be known to happen..!
Working in such a lovely venue with amazing views makes the job much more enjoyable! The trust the management team seem to have in us allows us the freedom to do our job efficiently.
I have just commenced my 5th year with Heaton House Events and I still feel excited to be part of this ever increasing family business. I think my proudest achievement was managing the team through a busy period during my first year whilst still in my previous role as Assistant Housekeeper. With such a great team behind me, it now feels like second nature and I am confident that this year will be as successful, if not better, than the previous four. I am hoping my next achievement may be something to do with helping to organise some valuable workspace in our storage areas.
If you are looking for a varied job, with no two days the same, and your willing to go the extra mile to ensure guests have a lovely time here, this is the place for you!
As per The Killers song: "Smile like you mean it!" Remember the 5 P's - "Perfect Preparation Prevents Poor Performance
After working in administration for many years, I wanted a new challenge and I enjoyed cooking, so my job as The Old Stableyard Cook was the perfect opportunity.
If weâve had guests stay over youâll find me preparing and cooking a delicious full English breakfast, I make sure the kitchen is clean and tidy and I also set up The Old Stableyard for the next day's breakfast.
Everything we do here is a real team effort - all the teams from the different areas all work together to make a fabulous event.
Reading the fantastic reviews from guests that have enjoyed their breakfast before they say their goodbyes and leave Heaton House Farm after a lovely stay.
If you are looking for a new challenge where every day is different, then Heaton House Events is for you
Make sure to stop for a moment and take in everything that is happening around you.
My daughter got married here in 2010 and I fell in love with the venue and thought it'd be nice to work here too - I was very right! Being on the other side of the event is just as fun.
I do varied jobs throughout the venue, including cooking breakfast in The Old Stableyard, housekeeping and helping to set the venue up for the events and weddings taking place.
My favourite thing about Heaton House Events is the atmosphere; itâs so lovely to work amongst such lovely people, we really are one big happy family.
We have numerous staff nights throughout the year, last year we had a delicious 3 course meal provided by Vanilla in Allseasons alongside an awards ceremony, I was over the moon to receive the highly commended âRising Star Awardâ, itâs great to feel so appreciated in what you do.
I would definitely recommend coming along and joining our award winning team, you wonât regret it!
Relax, enjoy and let the team do their thing!
