**Overall purpose**:
Waddesdon Manor is a historic house open to the public near Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. Created by Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild from 1874 and set in a Grade 1 listed garden, it is home to the Rothschild Collection and was bequeathed to the National Trust in 1957. Today it is managed by a Rothschild charitable trust, The Rothschild Foundation, and welcomes in the region of 350,000 visitors annually. It is home to the Rothschild Collection, a world-class collection of fine and decorative arts assembled by 3 generations of the family, and runs a varied public events, schools, and exhibitions program, including a popular Christmas Season.

There are two part-time Housekeeping Supervisor roles within the Housekeeping Department.

This specialist cleaning is expected to take an average of 5 hours (1 day) per fortnight.
