Bowhill House, Selkirk
What we do? Buccleuch is a diverse and innovative business with a passion for sustainable land use in rural Britain. At Bowhill House visitors are spoiled for choice. They can enjoy a woodland walk, marvel at our beautiful gardens, explore the adventure playground, take a guided tour, and treat themselves to home baking and delicious lunches in the Old Kitchen Café or refreshments from The Horsebox.
The role? Working in a team dedicated to providing an excellent visitor experience, this is a varied role that involves working in all aspects of our seasonal operation including welcoming customers, dealing with enquiries, serving food and drinks in our catering outlets, staffing our ticket hut, assisting with birthday parties, and helping our younger visitors enjoy our facilities, seasonal activities and events safely Hours will vary and weekend working will be required to cover our busiest time of the week.
The person? You will be great with people, enthusiastic, calm under pressure and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment. Previous customer facing and catering experience is a plus, but training will be provided. Given the varied hours candidates will require a good level of flexibility. Due to our rural location, access to your own transport is required. If you are keen to learn and want to gain experience in a visitor services environment then we'd love to hear from you
Why work for us? This is a unique opportunity to work in the stunning setting of Bowhill House, in a friendly, fun and supportive environment.
