Crossness Pumping Station is a unique, world heritage site built in 1865 to help rid London of cholera.

The Volunteer Coordinator will build strong relationships, coordinate scheduling and ensure volunteers are integrated across visitor services, events, heritage maintenance, education and administration.

This is a new role and will allow an experienced volunteer coordinator the opportunity to set up many of the essential parts of the role from scratch.
