What you’ll be doing?

We are looking for a creative and energetic Outdoor Activities Assistant to join our team and help develop and lead craft-based activities including wreath making, children’s arts and crafts, cider and slow gin making experience as well as supporting the delivery of our outdoor activities including archery. Experience in these fields is preferred, however further training can be given onsite.

The ideal candidate would have a love of the great outdoors and a good level of fitness as you will also be setting up and closing down the activities, driving license and transport is a must. If you feel you have other skills that would work well within the activities department such as crafts and forest school, then we welcome this too.

You will need to be comfortable and confident teaching adults and children who are experiencing these activities for the first time when they are staying with us.

Hours can vary depending on the demands of the hotel, during the holiday periods there will be the opportunity for more hours as the hotel is at its busiest and will include weekends. 

The Hotel is open 365 days of the year so there is the potential for work all year round.

**Please note: as this is a casual role we do not have live-in staff accommodation available** 

What you’ll need?

• To have a love of the great outdoors and be comfortable and confident supervising adults and children;
• A good level of physical fitness as you will be involved in the setting up and closing down of activities;
• To be flexible to work in our peak periods of weekends and school holiday periods;
