Summary
We’re looking for Service Team Members to join us at The White Cliffs of Dover to support our busy teams across visitor operations this summer. This is a varied and rewarding role where you’ll help us meet targets, solve problems, and deliver great customer service.
For this role, you’ll need to complete our online assessment instead of using a C.V. or online application form. This will help us understand more about your strengths and give you more information on the role.

The role includes weekends and Bank Holidays but does not require evening or split shifts.
