This is an excellent opportunity to join the Visitor Services (VS) team as a Visitor Services Officer. We have one permanent and two fixed term (2 years) posts available. The fixed term roles may be extended, or become permanent, subject to the outcome of a review of our service.

We are proud to have been awarded the Visit Scotland five-star tourism award in recognition of our exceptional customer service and services we offer and invite you to be part of a team that not only meets but exceeds visitor expectations.

Activities include organising and booking of tickets, staffing the information desk, managing visitors, delivering guided tours and talks and other general office administration.
