Fixed Term Contract; April 2016 to March 2018.
Edinburgh Castle is Scotland’s most popular paid visitor attraction, welcoming around 1.5 million visitors annually. Modern Apprentices are required in the three areas in the castle, tasks will include:
Admissions : Provide a world class welcome and direct visitors as appropriate upon their arrival at Edinburgh Castle, sell appropriate tickets and products

Guiding: Welcome and assist visitors on their way around the castle, work on both indoor and outdoor posts throughout the castle, oversee the security, and cleanliness and tidiness of the various apartments throughout opening hours
Retail: Carry out the daily operational duties of the shop as requested by the supervisor or retail management, maximise trading income through selling
and upselling appropriate merchandise, process sales, whilst ensuring that all financial procedures are adhered to and carried out accurately and efficiently, and ensure that high standards of shop hygiene and housekeeping are maintained at all times
The Modern Apprentices will spend the first three months in all three areas taking part in a thorough and detailed induction of the castle, after which they
will each be placed in one area where they will stay for the remainder of the contract unless stated otherwise. At this point, the Modern Apprenticeship qualification will commence.
