Service Assistant - WilmslowSummary

We're looking for a Service Assistant to support our busy visitor operations teams at Quarry Bank Mill.

Salary: 12.75 per hour

Contract Duration: Permanent

Working Pattern: You'll work 7 hours per week, typically on a Tuesday, but we can be flexible for the right candidate. You'll work one weekend day per month, and some Bank Holidays on a rota.

Interview Date: Thursday 24th September

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.

What it's like to work hereReporting to our Welcome Managers, you'll be part of a team of Visitor Welcome colleagues, working together to create exceptional visitor experiences.

This former cotton mill was built in 1784 and is one of Britain's greatest industrial heritage sites. The busy estate hosts many schools programmes and events, which help bring Quarry Bank's fascinating story to life. This is an opportunity to work in a popular location with a team that pride themselves on being dynamic, highly motivated and dedicated.

What you'll be doing

The core part of your job is to give vital and positive support to your colleagues, wherever you're needed, with a focus on greeting and helping visitors. No two days will be the same. You can expect to meet many different people and gain experience in different visitor areas. You'll get involved in all kinds of tasks, including greeting visitors on arrival, restocking shelves in our bookshop, helping orientate visitors around the Mill and property, and helping to keep our site looking it's best. Most importantly, you'll be talking to visitors, answering their questions and making sure they can find everything they need to enjoy their day.

Who we're looking for

We'd love to hear from you if you're:

  • focused on giving great service to everyone you meet
  • a team player, but also happy to work on your own initiative
  • well-organised and adaptable
  • willing to learn new skills
