Summary

As the public face of our properties, you’ll provide a warm, friendly welcome, give information about the property, answer questions and make sure everyone has an enjoyable and memorable visit. Great visitor experiences are in our nature, and we believe everyone should feel welcomed, appreciated and more engaged because of the excellent service you provide. This role would suit anyone with a passion for delivering great customer service and with a practical, hands on approach.

Salary:  £11.50 per hour

Contract/duration:  November 2024 to January 2025 to support our peak season of Autumn colour and Christmas

Hours/working pattern:  This role is an hourly paid, fixed term role. Wherever possible we aim to offer a consistent working pattern, but we’re looking for flexibility as it may be necessary for us to alter this pattern from time to time to suit the needs of the business. We’d give you as much notice of this as possible. You'll be required to help regularly on weekends during this period, including weekdays in school holidays (Christmas holidays). The property is open every day apart from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, so shifts will also include Boxing Day or New Years Day.

After a busy autumn, we have an exciting Christmas offer to delight families and visitors of all ages.

As this is an outdoors site, you'll need to be happy working outside in all weathers. Raincoats and over trousers can be supplied.

What you'll be doing

Service Assistants play an important role in supporting various property teams in greeting and helping our visitors. No two days are the same and you can expect to meet lots of different people and help in various visitor areas. You’ll be involved in different tasks. This role would suit anyone with a passion for delivering great customer service and a keen interest in learning about visitor operations. 

Some of the tasks you’ll support with are: parking cars quickly and efficiently, scanning membership cards and using the till in the kiosk, offering information and directing visitors, toilet checks, operating a carousel during our Christmas offer (to be confirmed) and clearing tables and trays in the Tearoom.
