About the role and about you
Please note salary is subject to 1st April pay review, details of which are to be confirmed in due course.
We are a team of people who love and look after six of the most wonderful palaces in the world and we are an independent charity and want everyone to feel welcome and accepted, and as an ‘Investor in People’, we want you to fulfil your potential and enjoy your work.
No visit to any one of the six Historic Royal Palaces would be complete without a souvenir of a great day out. Our products are an important income stream for us, so it’s essential that our Buying and Merchandising Team are able to work smoothly and efficiently.
We are seeking to appoint a professional and enthusiastic individual to join our team at Hampton Court Palace.
This demanding role will be responsible for providing our busy team with an exemplary standard of support by carrying out all the necessary administration in the buying process.
Key responsibilities will include the creation of new products and new suppliers on the Retail system, updating and maintaining product details on the range plan and system database and managing the critical path and import tracker.
You’ll be one of the key members of our team, so, as well as a good all-round standard of education (educated to A level or equivalent level), ideally you would already have Retail and administration experience (ideally within a buying environment), with the ability to multi task and cope with tight deadlines.
You will be highly organised and customer focused with the ability to use your initiative and prioritise. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are essential as are IT skills.
Closing date: 23rd February 2026
Historic Royal Palaces is an equal opportunities employer and truly values a diverse workforce. Applications are welcome from candidates regardless of their background.
We are also committed to high quality Safeguarding practices and to ensure everyone is kept safe in our palaces. We have procedures in place to ensure this commitment is delivered and will deal firmly and swiftly with anyone representing our charity who does not meet our required standards
