We are recruiting for our Visitor Experience Team and are looking for people who are as passionate as we are about engaging people with science.
As someone who is customer focused, your role will be to make a visit to Life Science Centre exciting, entertaining, informative and fun and to enhance the experience of all visitors. You will be interacting with a wide range of audiences, but primarily families and school children and occasionally on outreach in schools and community settings. You will be a confident performer, who can deliver hands-on science activities including live shows. You will enhance the experience of visitors around the science centre - covering all exhibitions, activities, and different workshops.
You will be interested in STEM and will be curious, enthusiastic, have excellent communication skills and enjoy presenting to audiences. You will also share our desire to help everyone understand better the relevance of science to their lives. Comprehensive training will be provided.
The science centre is open all year round and is particularly busy at weekends and school holidays so physical stamina, good humour and the ability to work at a high standard for long periods are all essential pre-requisites of the role. Working hours may vary to meet the needs of the business; therefore, a flexible approach will be required.
Deadline: Sunday 16 June 2024
Interviews will be held on the 2-3 July 2024
