The Volunteering Officer ensures that IWM delivers high quality, enjoyable and impactful volunteer engagement. Volunteering Officers lead a team of passionate and motivated volunteers, overseeing smooth and safe operation across Front of House and Back of House areas.

You will focus on achieving a thriving volunteer effort, supporting operations, building a positive volunteer ethos with staff, assisting volunteer recruitment campaigns, delivering training and identifying improvements in the volunteer experience. Your collaborative communication style will ensure you work in partnership with critical stakeholders such as Visitor Experience, Learning & Engagement, Membership, Preservation/Conservation, Digital and Curatorial.

You will support volunteers by organising rotas, briefings and deploying teams responsively to daily need.
