Heritage Officer

VOLUNTARY (UNPAID)

We operate two small, World War 2 Heritage Centres; one in Dunkeswell and one Near Upottery (Smeatharpe) in Devon.

Ideally we are looking for local, friendly and approachable people with some spare time, to work as one of a pair, particularly on a Sunday and maybe other days as holiday relief or in case of sickness. Our usual opening times are: Thursday to Sunday, 1100 to 1600. The start of our season is Good Friday and it ends on the last Sunday in October.

An interest in history would be an advantage to you (especially WW2) but you would be surrounded by the history of that Heritage Centre in text and pictures so it is immediately accessible and easy to point visitors towards.  You would work with an experienced person and would have training and briefings first.

If you find this appealing please do contact us and we can get Brian to have an informal chat with you about the role.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO PROCESS APPLICATIONS FROM OUTSIDE THE UK AS WE DO NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES OR FACILITIES TO DO SO.
