“I like being a Visitor Experience Assistant because no two days are the same. I get to learn new facts and love working with people, but most of all who else can say they go to work every day and open up a warship or an amazing building like the ropery and educating people with your knowledge? It’s amazing!”
Nikki, Visitor Experience Assistant
“I love meeting our visitors and ‘share’ the Dockyard with them. It is very rewarding to be able to share my knowledge with our visitors and help them have a great day out. My role allows me to learn about, and work in, so many diverse galleries and ships. I am constantly learning and meeting people from all walks of life. Being a Visitor Experience Assistant allows me to use skills I already have, plus take on exciting new challenges.”
Kat, Visitor Experience Assistant
