Shanon Richardson
Marketing CoordinatorI started at Eden Court in February 2022 as a member of the Ticket Sales team. I really enjoyed getting to know our customers and experiencing the buzz in the theatre around show time.
After three months, Marketing were looking for an extra pair of hands and my manager recommended me as I had some transferrable skills from past jobs. I spent a few months splitting my time between Ticket Sales and Marketing. I learned a lot in that short time and it was interesting to see how things worked behind the scenes. When a position came up in Marketing, my manager supported my decision to apply.
I've now been Marketing Coordinator for over a year and I love it! (My Marketing colleagues also love being able to book their cinema tickets with me...)
