Would you like to work for the leading Charity in the heritage sector? If so, we would love to hear from you and you to join us at English Heritage.
We are looking for a motivated Manager to join our team at St.
Augustine's Abbey.
This is a full-time role working 36 hours per week in the summer and reduced hours in the winter.
No history background? No problem.
What is important to us is a passion for people and excellent customer service.
We are looking for a Manager who enjoys working alongside their team and understands what it takes to deliver an engaging visitor experience to a diverse audience.
You will play your part in helping visitors experience more of England's captivating past and preserve it for generations to come.
We are the organisation that looks after England's most important buildings and monuments, making sure our country's amazing history is available for everyone to enjoy.
From world-famous prehistoric sites to grand medieval castles, Roman forts to a Cold War bunker, we bring the history of England to life.
As St Augustine's Abbey Manager, you will know what makes a great visitor experience and will be able to inspire your team to deliver this across your site.

From November - February this will adjust to 3 days and up to 21 hours a week.
You will be required to work weekends, Bank Holidays and New Year's Day.
Although your hours across the year will vary your pay will be annualised so that you have a consistent guaranteed payment each month.
