What We Offer

As a Building Manager with the British Science Association, you will gain valuable experience in event and temporary staff management, develop leadership skills, and gain insight into how a large event works behind the scenes.

Terms and Conditions

The Building Managers will work at the British Science Festival in Stratford and the Docklands from 11-15 September 2024 and will be required to attend an overnight training course in the week prior to the festival, where they will receive full training in evacuation and access procedures, as well as an introduction to all the venues on campus.

The training days on Sunday 8 and Monday 9 September will be paid at £15 per hour, and the BSA will provide overnight accommodation in Exeter if required and reimburse reasonable travel costs incurred in attending the training day.
