But you'll need to be good with your hands, as the job advert says, "You’ll carry out a mixture of planned and reactive maintenance, playing an essential part in the upkeep of Windsor Castle. You’ll check machinery, locate faults and regularly service our systems, as well as undertake a variety of electrical and mechanical repairs and minor installations."
The Building Supervisor role, on the other hand, has a focus on "preserving historic structures" - ones that could often present some challenges.
"The size, complexity and heritage of the Royal residences will present you with some truly fascinating, and often unique, challenges," according to the Royal Household website.

And the variety of your work, maintaining the fabric of our historic estates, will continue to inspire you," the job advert states.
