We are excited to offer the opportunity for an Event Intern to join the Goodwood team for a year.

Running from September 2024, we will be offering a unique opportunity for someone to join the Event division which is made up of the teams that are at the heart of delivering our spectacular headline events - Festival of Speed, Goodwood Revival, Members' Meeting, Qatar Goodwood Festival (QGF), and more recently Goodwoof.

The opportunity is open to students, recent graduates, and those looking for an opportunity to build experience ahead of a career in events, potentially at Goodwood! We welcome applications from students studying any degree subject but all candidates must have a passion for the events industry.

In this exciting and fast-paced role, every day will be different.  After spending time in a number of departments for the first few months, you will then join the team who are responsible for planning and delivering our newest event - Goodwoof. Your final placement will be with the Goodwood Racecourse team where you'll play a key role at our Three Friday Night fixtures and then the world famous Qatar Goodwood Festival (affectionately known as 'glorious Goodwood').  You will gain exposure of the planning, operations, logistics, and content curation involved in delivering world class events, and you will leave with an abundance of experience under your belt.  

The role is fixed term, available from 1st September 2024 through to 31st August 2025 (or a shorter period but latest start date 1st November and until at least 15th August).  Due to the nature of events and the requirements of this role, holiday will not be permitted on the following dates: 28th April - 23rd May; 2nd June - 20th June; and 21st July - 8th August.  Unfortunately, we are unable to progress with any candidates who wish to take holiday within these dates. There may be exceptions made for individual date requests for graduation and other similar life events.  Please specify these requests in your application.

The normal working hours will be 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, with extended hours and some weekend working required in the lead up to each of the events.  

‘The last year has been a totally unique and brilliant experience! Being part of and contributing to the Goodwood Estate, and the events division, has been the most significant step in my professional development. During the events season the role really comes into its own. The variety of wonderful and knowledgeable teams and people I have worked with, has allowed me to both learn and thrive in a hugely rewarding environment.’ Tom – 2023 Intern

What you will need:

  • Ability to work to strict deadlines and remain calm under pressure
  • Outstanding attention to detail and organisational skills
  • Ability to use initiative, multi-task and think laterally 
  • A passion for delivering great customer experiences

What you will get:

  • Discounted products and services from across the estate
  • Free gym and health club membership and a varied range of wellbeing classes
  • A fun-filled calendar of social events throughout the year
  • A beautifully unique environment and an opportunity to see what happens behind the scenes to create the Goodwood magic!
