We are building a new Museum for Waitaha Canterbury – a world-class facility for the taonga (treasures) we care for and a place to tell the stories of our region and the people who live here.

We now have the opportunity for an exhibition specialist to join us on our journey of redevelopment.

You will be directly involved with the design, build and installation of new exhibitions for the redeveloped Museum. We are looking for someone with proven experience in exhibition design and fabrication, along with demonstrated success working effectively within a project team. You will have an innovative outlook, attention to detail and the ability to meet deadlines.

You will ideally have a tertiary qualification in design, combined with sound practical fabrication skills.

This is a five year fixed term role.
