What people are saying about pay at National Trust

  • Best thing

    Good pay and training. Happy and collaborative team members.

    Worst thing

    Inflexible hours, you work a full day which is sometimes tricky balancing with other aspects of life. Hard to always get in contact with managers ect and our rotors are on paper and so are hard to sometimes keep up on, also feel guilty for asking for days off.
