Your role of Steward at Historic Environment Scotland will be a fixed term position, with an expected start date in May, until the end of September.

Are you looking for a flexible seasonal job that is both fun and unique? You'll get a unique view into Scotland's rich history and gain valuable experience in the tourism industry and help bring Scotland's dramatic history to life for our visitors from across the world. Explore the fascinating stories from Scotland's past and share your passion with international and local visitors who come to Bute and Port Glasgow through the season.

Glasgow & Strathclyde is a vibrant area of Scotland, encompassing 21 sites from Dunbartonshire to Ayrshire, including Glasgow and Lanarkshire. Our team works across a wide range of sites including castles, cathedrals, and gasworks. As a steward, you are key to enhancing the experience of our visitors by engaging with them about all aspects of our unique sites.

As a roving steward you will have the opportunity to work at all sites across the Glasgow & Strathclyde district, covering leave and supporting special events across the stewarding team. Sites are spread across a wide geographical area, and include Biggar Gasworks, Crossraguel Abbey, Rothesay, Newark, Bothwell and Dumbarton Castles. You will have the opportunity to work alone, and with a variety of site teams, and there are rarely two days the same. Regular weekend working will be required.
