About The Role

We are looking for a friendly, outgoing individual to join our team at Caerlaverock Wetland Reserve.

The successful applicant will provide a warm and informative welcome to all our visitors and managing the admissions till while providing orientation information to visitors. You will have a passion for good customer service, enjoy helping visitors to get the best from their visit to the reserve and love working in a very special nature reserve surrounded by wildlife.

This is a casual position where hours are offered on an ad-hoc basis. The role involves working in our visitor centre where you will be welcoming and advising visitors. You may also be required to take on other tasks across visitor services, depending on the needs of the organisation.
