Are you a Project Manager with experience of supporting the delivery of construction projects? Are you interested in working with the world's leading group of science museums?
About us
The Science Museum Group (SMG) operates one of the largest, most complex and iconic science-based estates in the world. We welcome over 5 million visitors a year, care for 7.3 million items in our collection, and we have an ambitious and exciting investment programme to transform our sites to enhance the visitor experience and ensure our collection is protected for generations to come.
Over the next couple of years, SMG will be making a significant investment in our capital infrastructure, thanks to funding received from government. This investment helps to make generational improvements to much loved public institutions.
As a result, we are recruiting into several Capital Project roles (Coordinator, Assistant Project Manager, Project Manager and Senior Project Manager) to help us deliver the work this funding allows us to undertake, at pace, across our various sites. We are recruiting permanent, and fixed-term roles, all full-time - 35 hours per week. Details below.
