I can finally formally announce our new appointment for Visitor Experience and Commercial Manager! Ellie Bowes will be starting with us on the first week of April. I asked her for a bio to share and this is what she wrote:
Hello Everyone! My name's Ellie Bowes and I am excited to take up the post of Visitor Experience and Commercial Manager for St Mary Redcliffe. I have been working in Visitor Experience specifically within Heritage sites for the last 10 years, starting my career at the Ironbridge Gorge Museums Trust.
Since then I have developed my skills at the SS Great Britain, the Roman Baths and Bath Abbey managing large teams of staff and volunteers, growing donations and income and delivering visitor experience improvements.
I am passionate about making history and heritage more accessible and using additional income to go back into supporting the local community.
Personally I am energetic, friendly and dedicated. In my spare time I love to hike, travel, paint and I've recently taken up climbing (what I lack in skill I make up for in enthusiasm!) I am due to start in early April.
Greatly looking forward to meeting you all. Best wishes, Ellie,
