The Head of Technical Production is responsible for leading and managing all technical production elements for the development and delivery of exhibitions and programs across all sites including Powerhouse Ultimo, Powerhouse Parramatta, Powerhouse Castle Hill, and Sydney Observatory. The role is responsible for the workshop, technical and exhibition teams and ensures the Powerhouse is at the forefront of contemporary museum practice.
The Powerhouse, through the renewal and across its platforms, will redefine museums in the 21st century by renegotiating the terms of engagement with communities, radically returning to and reckoning with its legacy as a museum of industry and fortifying its vital role in the cultural and economic ecosystems of NSW, Australia and the world. In 2023 the Powerhouse, one of Australia’s oldest and most important cultural institutions, continues the delivery of its renewal program across its five platforms: — Powerhouse Parramatta – building our new flagship in the fastest growing and most culturally diverse communities in Australia. — Powerhouse Ultimo – transforming the much-loved Powerhouse to deliver international exhibitions within a dynamic creative industries and technology precinct. — Powerhouse Castle Hill – expanding Collection storage, creating new public exhibition spaces and establishing world-leading collection management capabilities. — Sydney Observatory – restoring and enhancing this national heritage icon. — Powerhouse Digital – creating space to tell stories and provide new levels of access to the Powerhouse Collection of over 500,000 objects.
