Travel to the various Royal residences has been made a "mandatory requirement" for the ?14,200-a-year job.

The successful applicant must be "punctual, reliable, able to work well in a team and have a flexible and willing attitude."

Although based at Buckingham Palace, they must "be happy to travel and work at other Royal residences in the UK and at weekends."

The 40-hours-a-week job is an official position paid for from the Civil List.

The job does offer accommodation and has a closing date of January 15. Experience of a similar job is "desirable."
