Full-time

Henry Moore Studios & Gardens

Salary: £17,000 + up to 12.5% employer’s pension contribution.

We are looking to appoint a budding art technician with an interest in sculpture, to join our Collections & Exhibitions department. Working as part of a small and dedicated team of technical, registrarial and curatorial staff, you will assist with the care of the Foundation’s collections (predominately sculpture and works on paper) and help to deliver a busy programme of exhibition installations and loans in the UK and overseas. The role requires a flexible self-starter, who will take just us much pride in keeping the workshops tidy as preparing works of art for a world class exhibition.                         

The successful candidate will have some experience (paid or voluntary) of working in a cultural organisation, ideally in a technical or operational capacity. You may already have a qualification in museum studies, history of art/fine art, however more important is a ‘can do’, enthusiastic attitude and enjoyment of learning and working as part of a team. Competency in working with tools and willingness to undertake manual work are essential, as is the flexibility to be able to travel and undertake occasional evening and weekend working (for which time off in lieu will be given). A mix of ‘on the job’ and formal training will be provided.

If you are excited by this opportunity and, having read the job specification, you have the credentials to meet the requirements of the role, we would be delighted to receive an application from you.

Accommodation is available at a modest rent if required.

CLOSING DATE FOR APPLICATIONS: 10am on Tuesday 1 August 2017
