About this role

Job Advert

An exciting opportunity has arisen for some volunteering work at Chatsworth. We are looking to recruit enthusiastic people to raise awareness of our “Celebrating the Cascade” project and also to help us at Christmas in the Visitor Experience Team!

The Cascade is a very significant part of Chatsworth’s history and has continued to delight visitors, old and young, for over 300 years. Recently it has become apparent that it is badly in need of repairs for which we need to raise a significant amount of funding. The successful candidates will be working within the Cascade Hub, a fundraising awareness area of the Old Greenhouse within the gardens. Their duties will be to talk to visitors about how they can donate and the schemes that are available to them, depending on how much they choose to donate.

Training will be provided. Flexible shift patterns are available depending on which days you are available and work on a rota system to cover seven days per week.

Please state on your application what days you can commit to and if there are any dates you are unable to attend for interview.

Our core values include “Being Inclusive” and we particularly welcome applications from disabled and Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) candidates who are currently under-represented. We also welcome applicants from the LGBTQ+ community.
