Jobs

Fixed term to 18 December 2026.

The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE) is a world leading centre for plant science, conservation and learning, set within one of Scotland’s most loved public gardens. We welcome thousands of visitors each year and are committed to creating inspiring, inclusive and accessible experiences that help people connect with plants, nature and global biodiversity.

We are looking for an Interpretation Co-ordinator to support the delivery of engaging visitor facing interpretation across the Garden, and particularly for the reopening of our renowned Victorian Palm Houses. Working closely with an established interpretation and design team of RBGE colleagues and external partners, you’ll play a key role in co-ordinating projects, managing timelines and administration, supporting procurement and finances, and helping ensure interpretive materials — from signage and trails to digital content — are delivered smoothly, on time and to a high standard.

You’ll be a highly organised and collaborative individual with experience supporting projects in a cultural, heritage, environmental or public facing setting. Comfortable working across teams and with external suppliers, you’ll bring strong communication skills, attention to detail and a proactive approach. An understanding of visitor experience, inclusive practice and interpretation — or a genuine enthusiasm to develop these skills — will be central to your success in the role.

RBGE is unable to sponsor applicants without the right to work in the United Kingdom for this role. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure eligibility to work in the United Kingdom for the duration of the appointment.
