Churchill War Rooms
Beneath the Treasury on Whitehall, Churchill War Rooms houses the very rooms from which Winston Churchill and his war cabinet directed the war. 500,000 visitors a year come to explore the historic rooms and discover the stories of those who lived and worked here. And the rooms themselves are only half the story; there is also the award winning Churchill museum to explore, to learn all about the man himself. As a member of the Retail and Admission team you will be in a key, customer facing role, welcoming visitors to the museum, providing them with detailed information and consistently delivering the highest standards of customer service. A strong drive for achieving sales targets and the confidence to approach visitors and actively sell a wide range of products is essential.
Admissions: The key roles and functions are focused on welcome and income. This includes providing an excellent visitor welcome; information about the site; entry ticket sales, guidebook sales and handing out and collection of the audio guides.
Retail: The key roles and functions for Retail are focused on product knowledge, sales drive, team working and customer service. Churchill War Rooms has one shop, situated near the admissions area.
