The Museums, Art Gallery and Heritage Services sit within Southampton City Council’s Culture and Tourism Division and plays a vital role in sharing, celebrating and caring for Southampton’s rich art, history and heritage. Through Southampton City Art Gallery, SeaCity Museum, Tudor House & Garden and the city’s collections, we create opportunities for people to explore stories, ideas and experiences that connect communities, visitors and future generations.
We are a public-facing, people-centred service that brings together collections, exhibitions, learning, engagement, volunteering, commercial activity and venue operations. Our teams work collaboratively to provide welcoming, inclusive, safe and inspiring experiences for residents, schools, families, partners, communities and visitors to the city.
Joining the service means being part of a creative, supportive and ambitious team that is committed to excellent visitor experience, meaningful community connection and responsible care of the city’s heritage assets.
As Commercial and Customer Journey Assistant, you will help keep our vision of “Every Interaction is an Opportunity” at the heart of the visitor and customer journey. Working as part of the Commercial and Customer Journey Team, you will support the Commercial Manager and Commercial and Customer Journey Officer to deliver excellent service across our museums, gallery and heritage venues, ensuring customers experience clear information, timely responses and a smooth journey from first enquiry through to booking, visit, event or follow-up.
You will be a first point of contact for online, email and social media enquiries, responding helpfully and signposting customers to the right information or team. You will support bookings, venue hire, weddings, commercial events, learning activity and wider customer enquiries, using booking, EPOS and finance systems to help administer events, process payments and invoices, maintain accurate records and support smooth operational delivery.
The role also supports commercial activity across the portfolio, including retail ordering and stock management, promotional content, venue presentations, events administration, clerical support, financial processes, customer feedback and day-to-day coordination across front of house, venue hire, marketing, exhibitions, learning and collections activity. We are looking for someone organised, approachable and customer focused, with strong administrative skills and a process-driven approach. You will need strong communication skills, good attention to detail, confidence using digital and financial systems, and the flexibility to support weekend and evening working as part of an established rota.
