Visitor Experience Officer
7 days ago
Being a Visitor Experience Officer for the National Trust is all about people - connecting with them, inspiring them, and making sure they have the best possible day when they come to visit.
If you love working with all kinds of people, and you’re excited by the Trust’s cause - to protect and care for places so that people and nature can thrive - then this could be the job for you.
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 Senior Visitor Experience Officer, you’ll be based at Newark Park, a beautiful historic house, garden and estate located on top of the Cotswold escarpment. Newark Park is situated in an unspoilt corner of Gloucestershire, with barely a sign of modern life visible in any direction.
You’ll be working as part of a friendly, close-knit, and passionate team of staff and volunteers who work across all departments to look after this special site and share it with the public.
What you'll be doing:As Visitor Experience Officer, your main focus will be on providing a great service for visitors. With your team, you’ll be welcoming people and inspiring them to really get to know Newark Park. This might include devising and running events and activities, and creating interpretive displays and other ways of bringing the place, and its stories, to life for everyone who comes here.
You’ll be sharing with others your love for your work and the place itself. You might be encouraging visitors to take a closer look at artworks or precious objects cared for by the Trust. You might be supervising and supporting volunteers and organising rotas. You’re likely to be checking standards of presentation on site, or helping to write for our web pages.
