Program Details
We expect our volunteers to be friendly and welcoming to all our guests and everyone in the team. I'm very hands-on and willing to help out as necessary but I expect volunteers to apply themselves during working hours as I will be absent from time to time so the volunteer will have to be able to work to their own initiative. We have documentation to help make the role easier in terms of standard email responses etc that need to be amended on a guest-by-guest basis. We need someone who is fluent in English in both writing and speaking.
