Based primarily at Croome, you'll also support sites across the Worcestershire Portfolio, including The Firs, Greyfriars House and Garden, and Hanbury Hall. As travel between sites is required, please think about how you would get to work before applying for this role.

What you'll be doing:The core part of your role is to provide vital, positive support to colleagues wherever needed, with a strong focus on greeting and helping visitors.
