Please read our Package, below, to see what we can offer you.

**Hours**:1352 hours per year, on average 30 hours/4 days per week, 8am - 3pm. This role is based on annualised hours, where the amount of hours you work each month may vary, however your salary will be paid in equal instalments over the year.

What it's like to work here:Reporting to the Food & Beverage Manager, you'll be based at Buckland Abbey. When you visit Buckland, you follow over 700 years of footsteps; from the Cistercians who built the Abbey and farmed the estate, to seafarers Grenville and Drake who changed the shape of the house and the fate of the country. The Abbey is part museum, part house, and filled with treasures. There’s no mistaking the magnificence of the Great Barn, which has remained virtually unchanged since it was built all those centuries ago.

Due to the location of Buckland and lack of public transport, we would encourage you to consider how you would commute here before you apply.
