This is a unique opportunity to join our Front of House team, supporting both the Visitor Experience and Retail & Admissions departments to ensure all visitors receive a warm, engaging, and professional welcome.

The role involves working 4 days per week, including some weekends, until Friday 31 October 2025. The schedule can be flexible to accommodate study or term times, if applicable. The position is paid at the National Minimum/Living Wage (*age dependent). Full induction and training will be provided.
