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. ACMI’s Fed Square site is currently closed as we undergo 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.
In order to deliver our ongoing temporary exhibition programme post re/opening, We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to join the Exhibitions Team to manage the production of ACMI’s next major international inbound touring exhibition, opening to the public in 2020. With the wider team, you will also assist the Exhibition Manager in developing future temporary in-house exhibition experiences for 2020 and beyond.
To be successful you will enjoy the challenge of delivering superb visitor experiences in a fast-paced creative environment and have the resilience and exceptional interpersonal skills required to achieve successful delivery. You have the confidence and experience to manage contractors and internal staff delivering on all aspects of temporary exhibitions. Your knowledge of project management within the cultural sector and your pragmatic and collaborative approach will see you taking the next step in your project management career.
Please note interviews will be held on Thursday 11 July 2019
