This Visitor Services Assistant role is at Westonbirt, the National Arboretum, which is one of the finest collections of temperate trees in the world. Our mission at the arboretum is ‘To connect people with trees to improve the quality of life.’ Every year, more than half-a-million visitors enjoy our tree collection, excellent visitor facilities, and programme of vibrant events.
