About this opportunity from Vulcan Restoration Trust

· Showing individuals and groups of visitors around Vulcan XL426 and the Trust’s engineering facilities.
· Car park marshalling.
· Helping set-up and break-down before and after events.
· Providing administrative support relating to events.
Skills
Ability to mix with and chat with members of the public with confidence on general matters and matters relating to the Vulcan aircraft (an interest in aviation will be an advantage, but isn’t compulsory, and full training will be given regarding the history of the Vulcan and its role with the Royal Air Force).

Commitment
On specific dates as shown on the VRT website. The Trust runs public events throughout the year. These are normally at weekends but can be during the week. Events are most often held during the day, although occasionally they are in the evening. All volunteers must go through an induction process because there are health, safety and security issues as we work on a live aircraft at a commercial airport.
