**Permanent, Part Time 16.5 hours per week working evening and weekends.
We are looking for a Museum Events Assistant to work in our private hire events team across our five museums including M Shed and Bristol Museum & Art Gallery. If you enjoy delivering great customer service and love supporting events then read on.

We are currently focusing on increasing our income for running private events at our museums. To do this we need to provide excellent customer service by helping the client enjoy their event at our museum, ensure the safe running of the event, giving the client any support they need and ensuring our collection of over 2 million objects remain well looked after. We are currently looking to introduce new events around our current offer and you will be key to ensuring these new ventures succeed, as well as working to support our public events programme.

Our private events team includes four permanent staff on a rota, and a casual team supporting as extra help as required. We work closely with our venue partner who manage all aspects of the catering on the night with you helping to prepare the venue, support contractors and other staff, and unlock/lock our venues.

In the coming months we will be incredibly busy hosting events all nights of the week along with some early mornings and daytimes so are looking for people who have flexibility to work multiple nights across the week including weekends.

If you think you can help us make a difference then I'd encourage you to apply, and we are looking for the right people to start straight away.

Your work will contribute to supporting the museum service which is over 100 years old. We think it's special and hope you do too.

**This role is mostly evening work (5pm until late) and some weekend days or mornings and will work mainly at M Shed and Bristol Museum & Art Gallery.**

In addition, you’ll be working in a supportive environment where you’ll have the chance to make Bristol a better place and contribute to its future.

**How do I apply?**
