Day-to-day operating brief

What Visitor Services Assistant (Greeter) work looks like in practice

A Visitor Services Assistant welcomes the public, checks tickets, gives directions and helps people navigate exhibitions and facilities. Terms should cover opening information, accessibility, memberships, cloakrooms, queues, gallery conduct, lost property, photography rules, school groups and emergencies. The assistant should not improvise historical answers, guarantee an unavailable adjustment, handle collection objects or leave a public position without a proper handover. Daily briefing should cover gallery closures, timed entry, sensory conditions, lift status and events so visitors receive consistent information at the door. If someone becomes unwell, the assistant should summon the trained response, protect privacy and keep public routes clear rather than attempting treatment beyond competence.
