Vacancy - Volunteer Steep Holm Bookings Secretary

The Role

Our Volunteer Bookings Secretary is retiring in September. The Trustees would love to hear from anyone who feels they could have a few hours a week to become our new Bookings Secretary. 

If you have a passion for the outdoors, enjoy talking to people, and can use a telephone and computer please contact us for an informal chat about the role.  
The Trust will install a dedicated telephone line for you to make and receive calls about bookings. 

Many customers make enquiries and send booking forms by email so you will need to be happy using a computer.  

The Bookings Secretary also works with our sailing contractor to plan the trips for the year, and manages a bookings diary to make sure trips have enough volunteers to help on the island and crew the boats. 

This is a unique volunteer role that will suit someone who has some time to talk to people with questions about the island. You will need to be methodical and organised.  Whilst not essential to visit the island, you will be welcome to join us on trips to help visitors get the most out of their day.

We will provide training and will be on hand to help with any aspects of the job.  
The Trust is a registered charity and relies on the generosity of volunteers that give their time to manage the island.  Please contact us if you feel you can help us with the role.

For more information, or an informal chat please call our bookings line on 01934 522125 or email us at: volunteer@steepholm.org.uk
