View Vacancy -- Tourism Assistant

An opportunity has arisen to join the Tourism Service within the Prosperity & Development Division. We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly motivated individual who has an understanding of Tourism within Wales and Rhondda Cynon Taf in particular.

The successful candidate will support the Tourism Adviser in working with local attractions, such as The Welsh Mining Experience, the National Lido of Wales Lido Ponty, The Royal Mint Experience and Penderyn Distillery, accommodation providers, stakeholders and partners, to develop new and enhance existing tourism products and services with a view to creating a first class visitor experience in Rhondda Cynon Taf.

We are looking for someone who has experience of working within the Tourism sector and a good understanding of Visit Wales procedures and requirements.

If you have the skills, drive and experience necessary for this challenging and rewarding role we would like to hear from you!
