Learning Administrator

It's supporting the team who bring people closer to history

It’s an experience like no other. And it’s the satisfaction of interpreting and presenting one of the world’s greatest art collections. This is what makes working for Royal Collection Trust so different.

The Royal Collection has a uniquely rich and engrossing history. As part of our Learning Section at The Palace of Holyroodhouse, you'll join the team responsible for sharing its stories in ways that engage, surprise and inspire.

Supporting the delivery of events and activities that make up a varied learning programme, you'll assist with daily team administration. You'll support external learning suppliers and contractors, and keep our expanding database of contacts up to date, helping the team engage with the broadest possible audience.

You'll manage invoices, logistics and travel arrangements, and you'll ensure that we're consistent in our approach to administration and record keeping.

As a key point of contact you'll be immersed in the world of learning, helping with varied queries relating to the busy operations of the team.

You'll be involved in all aspects of the Learning programme. From arranging the production of 'What's on' guides, and assisting with events, to coordinating and collating feedback; you'll learn just what goes on behind the scenes to create a successful and engaging experience.

And as you support others, you'll have real opportunities to grow your own skills. We have ambitious plans for the future; and you'll be encouraged to make an impact and help us to deliver the exceptional.

Educated to degree level with previous administrative experience, you'll be passionate about starting a career in Learning.

And it's your pro-active attitude and excellent organisational skills that will make you stand out from the crowd.

You work well independently; you're able to prioritise a varied workload, and you thrive when there are tight deadlines to meet. And with a keen eye for detail, you'll always deliver with faultless accuracy.

A professional and confident communicator, you'll enjoy building relationships with a wide range of internal colleagues and external people alike.

What's more, you're a real team player, and can work flexibly in order to support your colleagues.

With good written and analytical skills, you'll be comfortable drafting everything from content for the website to supplier contracts and reports.

In return you will be rewarded with a comprehensive benefits package, including 33 days holiday pro-rata (inclusive of Bank Holidays), a 15% employer contribution pension scheme (with the option for flexibility - to increase contributions or draw down as salary), lunch provided, with training and development, as well as a range of recreational facilities.
