Visitor Centre Host
Nga Manu Nature Reserve managed by Volunteer Kāpiti
You will be the face of Nga Manu welcoming our visitors in our visitor centre. The role includes explaining what to see and do at Nga Manu, selling admissions, tours and retail merchandise. You'll add real value to Nga Manu and conservation broadly by offering and upselling tours, experiences and programmes. There are some general duties such as retail display, ensuring the shop and visitor centre is presented well, and maintaining our visitors' facilities including bathrooms when required.
Nga Manu welcomes more than 25000 visitors annually, welcoming locals, schools groups, tours and foreign tourist. Every interaction with one of our visitors makes a real difference. You'll support Nga Manu's role as the leading conservation-based charity and a highly respected tourist destination on the Kapiti Coast.
A background in retail sales is expected and highly advantageous. Induction and training will be provided but basic retail knowledge is expected.
There may also be other roles to expand in to at the reserve once you're on the team.
