Request for Tender: Project Manager

Wigtown Festival Company (WFC) is looking to engage a Project Manager to work alongside the WFC team to research, develop, design, print, and promote a series of trails, itineraries, and day trips in time for the Wigtown Book Festival in the autumn. These will offer up easily accessible recommendations to visitors for additional things to do and places to see while they’re visiting, including signposting to hospitality providers and tourism sites along the way.

As part of a project funded by the Best of British Fund, Wigtown Festival Company is looking to improve the information that we provide to our visitors, to offer fresh incentives to attend the festival and to stay for longer in the region. This project is about improving the visitor experience, but it is also about signposting visitors to local businesses.
