Can you make sure each of our visitors leaves with a smile on their face and stories to tell?
As a Visitor Experience Assistant (VEA), you’ll have the opportunity to work across a wide range of front of house areas. Whether welcoming visitors, promoting our retail range in the gift shop, or serving in one of our catering outlets, you’ll be the main point of contact for our visitors throughout their time in our venues.
You will be responsible for upholding the highest front of house standards, consistently providing excellent customer service and ensuring our venues are presented in their best possible light.
A bit about you
A confident verbal communicator, you’ll excel at making others feel welcome and valued. You’ll have a strong drive to make the visitor experience at Milestones and Basing House the best it can be, ensuring each and every visitor has an excellent day out!
You’ll be a supportive team player, always willing to jump in and lend a hand, but also happy to work on your own initiative when necessary. You might even know a little about history yourself and be keen to pass your knowledge onto others in an engaging way. Oh... and you will enjoy dressing up!
