Working alongside the Manager, Supervisor, Food & Beverage Manager and Head Gardener to ensure a safe and welcoming environment for our visitors, you'll play a key role in managing the volunteers across the site to bring the history of Marble Hill to life. The role is diverse and challenging, with events adding to the variety of the day to day opening of the site and the volunteer support required. Marble Hill was built in the 1720s for Henrietta Howard, mistress of King George II when he was Prince of Wales, as a retreat from court life. Both house and garden were designed with advice from the most fashionable gentlemen of early Georgian England. Saved from destruction and development by an Act of Parliament in 1902, Marble Hill is the last complete survivor of the elegant villas and gardens that once bordered this part of the Thames. With volunteer teams for both the house and gardens, events, admin and research, Marble Hill has a large number of volunteers and we are looking to increase for the new season when you'll be working alongside the other managers to deliver a consistent welcome and deliver as one team. We continually look for new ways to promote the past in a way that is inclusive to all and that celebrates the cultural diversity of England's heritage. By joining English Heritage, you will be part of a charity that is already on an exciting journey to tell everyone's story. You'll find it's a workplace like no other - taking you behind the scenes of these extraordinary sites and supporting you to share your ideas, inspire others and make a difference. By joining us, you'll enjoy the rewards of a great team environment in inspiring locations, helping to make our sites a wonderful place to visit. You'll also be joining our charity, which through our 400+ historic monuments, buildings and sites, brings the story of England to life for over 10 million visitors each year. Job Summary
