We offer a wide range of career opportunities at every level of the organisation. From apprenticeships to senior management, permanent to fixed term contracts or part-time working, we have something for everyone.

The Facilities Team operates across three high prestige buildings in Leamington Spa town centre:
The Royal Spa Centre, The Royal Pump Rooms and Leamington Spa Town Hall.

We regularly deal with a broad spectrum of customers including the general public, councillors, contractors, artists and visiting companies.

We are looking for a highly motivated individual with excellent customer service skills and attention to detail.

To assist with the day-to-day operation of the Royal Spa Centre, Royal Pump Rooms and Town Hall, ensuring that they are always safe, clean, and customer-focused.
