Situated at the very heart of Melbourne in Federation Square, ACMI explores the rapid evolution and astonishing creativity of the moving image with a vibrant, multilayered program of exhibitions, screenings, installations and commissions, festivals, and public, industry & education programs. ACMI is the most successful museum of its kind in the world. It plays a vital part in establishing Melbourne as a global cultural destination. In 2017/18, ACMI attracted 1.55 million visitors to its Federation Square site, and 454,200 visitors to its national and international exhibition touring program.
As we rapidly evolve towards a knowledge economy, ACMI presents its stories and objects in unique ways, spanning the conventions of traditional museums and reflecting the innovation and evolution of the moving image in our fast-moving world. We are embarking on a visionary $40m redevelopment that will transform the institution, overhauling our permanent exhibition, dramatically improving the visitor experience, integrating cutting-edge technology and expanding our education programs. ACMI’s Fed Square site is planned to close for the redevelopment from May 2019.
This exciting opportunity within our Exhibitions Team supports the planning, project management and delivery of ACMI’s in-house and touring exhibitions program. In this role you will collaborate with leading talent across ACMI, and work with the Exhibition Manager to deliver our exhibitions program, including ACMI’s new permanent exhibition opening in 2020. You will be a part of an extraordinary team who are accountable for the presentation of galleries and exhibitions at ACMI and offsite to ensure the highest quality visitor experience within budget and resources.
Your skill and experience in delivering high quality exhibitions of various scales, project management, exhibition planning & development and your sound organisation skills will place you ahead of the pack for this exciting opening at Australia’s leading museum of film, video games, digital culture and art.
Interviews will be held: Tuesday, 16th April 2019
