About us:
Kent Wildlife Trust is the county’s leading conservation charity with more than 31,000 members and over 1000 registered
volunteers. We manage and protect over 9000 acres of land across more than 90 different sites and nature reserves, alongside 2
visitor centres. But we can’t save nature alone. So, we work closely with local communities, businesses, organisations and
individuals to protect and restore wildlife and wild spaces and create a wilder Kent for the benefit of people and the planet.
What you'll be doing:
As the Visitor Centre and Events Assistant, you will be responsible for the retail and catering in our visitor centres. Welcoming
visitors and providing exemplary customer service will be an integral part of this role, along with the provision of light
refreshments and managing the retail outlet.
What we need you to bring:
You will be responsible for opening and closing the centre, operating the till, working with volunteers, daily cleaning and
cashing up at the end of the day. You will work closely with the Visitor Centre & Retail Manager to ensure the centre is compliant
to health and safety regulations.
This is a great opportunity to be a part of a flexible dynamic team. You will be able to develop new skills, learn about our
wonderful wildlife and gain experience working with volunteers. We are looking for assistants who are enthusiastic and keen to get
involved with the Trust’s future.
A DBS check will be required for this role.
What we will offer in return:
We offer exceptional enhanced benefits. Recognising the wellbeing pressures related to the climate and nature crises we face as a
society, we provide flexible work options, wellbeing initiatives, and professional development opportunities. Whatever stage of
your career you’re at, our comprehensive benefits package at Kent Wildlife Trust can be a key factor in your choice to join us.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are
interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
Shortlisted candidates will be invited to a face to face interview. We will let unsuccessful candidates know if they have not

We are unable to recruit anyone who does not have a right to work in the UK.
Kent Wildlife Trust believes that everyone has a responsibility to safeguard children, young people, and adults at risk; we are
committed to ensuring their safety and wellbeing is at the heart of our engagement with people. We will ensure that all our
recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to references, Disclosure

The Kent Wildlife Trust Group is Wild About Inclusion. To us, this means inspiring, empowering and engaging people from all
backgrounds, cultures, identities and abilities, to change the natural world for the better. It also means cultivating inclusive
workspaces that are free from discrimination, where differences are celebrated, everyone can be themselves and flourish, just like
nature!
