The Chester Races website states: "Chester Race Company aims to become the leading sports/leisure and corporate venue in the North West through perpetual innovation and succession planning.

"Our aspiration is to become an ‘employer of choice’ by investing in our human resources through engagement and recognition along with continual training and development.

"When it comes to our event management, we like to see talent unreined.

"We’re interested in people who can think creatively, on the move, with great organisational skills and people whose standards match our own. If you think you’re one of them, we’d like to hear from you."
