Buckingham Palace is looking for a trainee butler and the perks are great

Olivia Hayes

Fancy living it up in Buckingham Palace?

You will have to work, of course, but you will also be able to stay in the palace and have meals served to you everyday.

The royal family is currently looking for a trainee butler to support “the team to deliver world class service.”

The role includes entertaining big and small groups from start to finish, as well as learning a few “specialist skills.”

The job description reads: “You’ll take care of guests from welcome to goodbye. And you’ll learn how to deliver functions of all scales, from official lunches to state banquets.

“But it’s the extensive back-of-house preparation that ensures success. The basics need to be right. And so you’ll learn all  the specialist professional skills needed to make sure presentation and delivery is always perfect.”

You will also receive a qualification at the end of your training.

“The learning curve will be steep, but we’ll be with you every step of the way. And in an environment where development and training is commonplace, you’ll grow your skills far beyond your immediate role. And, after initial training, you’ll be supported to achieve an accredited Butlering qualification too.”
