We cannot open the doors to the museum without the talents of our Maintenance Team. This dedicated team keeps everything working. They are excellent problem solvers and have good practical skills. If this sounds like you then maybe the Maintenance Team is the place for you.
What’s involved?
This is a very varied role – no day is the same! Our Maintenance Team look after our building so their work could be anything from painting, putting together exhibitions, fixing displays, grounds work, pat testing and building specialist objects.
Is this role for me?
If you have previous experience of a practical vocation or enjoy a bit of DIY then this would be a great fit for you. This is a close-knit team, making it a good place to meet like minded people and contribute to the work of the museums.
To have an interest in DIY, be responsible, practical and a good problem solver.
