It’s knowing that your customers left with more than just wonderful memories.

It’s the collaboration and the community spirit. And it’s helping millions enjoy magnificent buildings and beautiful art. This is what makes working for Royal Collection Trust so different.

Every year thousands of people from around the world visit the Palace of Holyroodhouse, exploring its rich history, and the treasures on display. Whether you're selling the ticket that starts it all, or the gift that provides the perfect ending, you'll be a vital part of each visitor's experience.

Friendly, outgoing and a confident communicator, you're able to strike the perfect balance between sales and service.

You're an outstanding team player, with the ability to work flexibly and effectively even when things get busy.

What's more, you're able to think on your feet, a key skill, considering you'll never know who the next customer might be.
