What we’re looking for:
· A confident user of Microsoft 365 – especially Excel, Word & Outlook
· Someone who’s calm, organised and ready to support others.
· A team player who can also work independently and juggle a varied workload.
· Retail experience and systems support experience are great bonuses!
Why work with us?

· Be part of a supportive team doing meaningful work.
· Get involved with a unique outdoor learning community.
· Enjoy flexible working across a seven-day operation.
· Help us role model sustainability and community spirit to young people from all walks of life.
