Jobs

Contract: Part time/Flexible contracts available; weekend working required, varied hours from 7.5-25 per week

Dundee Science Centre is an award-winning visitor attraction based in the heart of the ‘the coolest little city in Britain’ (GQ Magazine). As a registered charity, our mission is to make science accessible to everyone.

We are looking for outgoing, dynamic, and confident individuals to join our team as Science Communicators in a part time capacity, working flexible hours throughout the week to meet the demand of our visitors.

An ambassador for and the public face of Dundee Science Centre, you will be an excellent communicator and an effective team player with the ability to multi-task. Your main function will be to interact with all visitors in a friendly, outgoing manner ensuring an exceptional experience.

You will be responsible for delivering high quality science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programmes across all audiences (including schools and community groups), either in-centre or via outreach, all in line with Dundee Science Centre’s key aims and objectives.

You will be an advocate for Inclusion & Diversity, contributing to the development of DSC’s widening access strategies creating a culture of inclusion for our team and audiences.

The successful candidates will have a positive, resourceful, and a kind nature with the ability to work independently and play a key role across the organisation. You will have an excellent knowledge and understanding of visitor engagement and an enthusiasm for talking to people.

STEM knowledge is a desirable trait in this role, however having a confident and charismatic nature would be more advantageous. An understanding of science can be enhanced with on-the-job training; but an ability to communicate effectively with diverse audiences is essential.
