public reception team member

As a guide, you will be part of the public reception team at Museum Batavialand. The day team handles the entire public reception, from selling tickets and products to providing information to visitors. This takes place at various locations, such as in the museum, at the shipyard, on the jetty and on the ship Batavia. All-round public volunteers and guides change places throughout the day, so your day is always varied and you work with different people.
That group only had half an hour, but they were so interested that they walked around here for an hour and a half.
We would like to strengthen our team with volunteers who enjoy taking visitors into stories in an interactive way. You know better than anyone to adapt your story to the target group and the circumstances. Sometimes you stimulate visitors with a short story of 10 minutes, other times there is time for an extensive tour and everything in between. Knowledge about the history of Flevoland, shipbuilding and/or the seventeenth century is a plus, but not necessary. We provide the basic information and help you make the stories your own.
What do we expect from you?
Deployment: once or twice every 4 weeks for a weekend day and/or once a week during the week. Working hours are from 10:30 am to 5:00 pm.
You know better than anyone to make guests feel welcome and bring the story of Museum Batavialand to life.
You have a spontaneous and welcoming attitude.
You can work independently as well as in a team.
Speaking English and/or German is a plus but not necessary.
