In fact, it’s a big team effort and it’s why our Collections Assistants are so important.
What it's like to work here:Situated within the Cathedral Close in the heart of Salisbury, Mompesson is an elegant Queen Anne house with a tranquil walled garden. The sense of tranquillity is enhanced by the magnificent plasterwork, graceful oak staircase and fine period furniture.

What you'll be doing:As a Collections Assistant, you’ll be working with a small housekeeping team in an incredible place, helping with the day-to-day cleaning and care of the collections. No detail will go unnoticed, and you’ll keep a keen eye on everything from the environmental conditions in a room, to signs of wear and tear. You’ll keep accurate records too.
