Role
The Scottish Ornithologists’ Club (SOC) is seeking a motivated, organised and approachable individual to join our team as Visitor Experience Officer. Based at the Club’s attractive headquarters at Waterston House in Aberlady, this role is central to delivering a welcoming and informative front-of-house experience for visitors, members and researchers.
You will be a key member of a small, dedicated team and will often work independently. Confidence, initiative and a friendly, professional manner are therefore essential. Shifts are 9.30am–5.00pm and include an unpaid 30-minute lunch break.
The role operates on a set weekend rota agreed in advance. Flexibility to provide occasional additional weekday cover, either through time off in lieu (TOIL) or agreed shift swaps, is welcomed. As a small organisation, we value staff who can adapt to support the wider aims and day-to-day operation of the Club.
