The advert says: “As a centre assistant your working days will vary but will include weekends and Bank Holidays. Weekly hours will not be fixed, although we can be flexible and offer anything from 5 days a week to part-time work, depending on your availability between April to August. RSPB Bempton Cliffs is around 20 minutes by car from Bridlington and a 35 minute drive from Scarborough. The nearest train station is a mile walk from the local village.”

Bempton Cliffs is one of Yorkshire’s most popular wildlife attractions, and this year saw the visit of Albie the albatross, who is the only albatross in the Northern hemisphere. Albie, who has a wingspan of over 2.4m, has been living in the Baltic Seas around Denmark and Germany since 2014 after being blown off course from the South Atlantic oceans.

The RSPB wants to conduct interviews for the job from the week beginning January 30. Anyone who requires further information is asked to email [email protected], or click here for further information.
