Are you confident engaging with people of all ages and backgrounds? Do you enjoy creating welcoming, inclusive experiences that spark curiosity and help bring stories to life?

About us

The Science Museum Group (SMG) exists to inspire future scientists, engineers and inventors. As the world's leading group of science museums, we share our unparalleled collection across science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine with over five million visitors each year.

At Locomotion in Shildon, we tell the story of the railways and their impact on society. Through our collections, exhibitions and public programmes, we create engaging experiences that inspire curiosity, support learning and connect communities with their heritage.

To help us deliver these experiences, we are seeking an Explainer to join us on a permanent, part-time basis, working 20 hours per week.

About the role

As an Explainer, you will play an important role in creating memorable visitor experiences and helping people engage with our collections and exhibits. Working as part of our Public Programme team, you will facilitate activities, demonstrations and interactive experiences for a wide range of audiences, including families, school groups and community organisations.

You'll deliver hands-on STEM activities and Explainer-led sessions, adapting your communication style to suit different audiences and supporting visitors with a range of needs. Whether you're helping a young child explore a scientific concept, welcoming an educational group, or supporting a community event, you'll help ensure every visitor feels included and inspired.

Alongside visitor engagement, you'll support the development and delivery of new activities, work collaboratively with volunteers and operational teams, and contribute to outreach work in schools and communities beyond the museum.

The role is based at Locomotion, Shildon, working 20 hours per week across Monday to Thursday. Typical shifts will be 9:00am to 2:00pm, although some flexibility may occasionally be required to support programmed activities and events.

About you

Joining us, you'll be a confident communicator who enjoys working with people and creating positive experiences. You'll be comfortable engaging with visitors of all ages and helping them explore new ideas through enquiry, discussion and participation.

You'll bring excellent interpersonal skills, a collaborative approach and a commitment to providing great customer service. You'll be enthusiastic about learning, open to feedback and confident using your initiative while knowing when to seek support.

We're particularly interested in candidates who are passionate about creating welcoming and inclusive environments for diverse audiences. Experience of working with children, young people or individuals with special educational needs would be helpful but is not essential. An interest in science, technology, engineering, maths, local history or heritage would also be beneficial.

Don't feel you meet all the criteria? We welcome you to apply even if your experience doesn't match directly. With your transferable skills, you could be the right candidate for this, or other opportunities that we have.
