About The Role

Your role will bring awe-inspiring nature up close, directly shaping our visitors’ unforgettable experiences. We are looking for a friendly, outgoing person who can provide a warm welcome and interact with visitors through the use of props and talks. Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team. You'll get a warm welcome, including information on training, equipment and anything else you need.
