Hello Sarah Smithers,

After hunting for the right position, I decided to make a team and create a Startup to work for museums and preservation parcs. We're always open to new people and new ideas :)

We actually work more for preservation parcs, with open source solutions.

 

Anyway, if you feel like being part of a young startup, feel free to send a mail :)

 

Best !

 

Rom.

I am in the UK, so generally I have to use other sites to search for jobs; but I've got to the point now, where I feel like giving up with this career. I have an MA as well as a Museum Studies qualification and voluntary experience, and I have only ever had 1-year of paid museum work. Most of my work experience has just been admin., but museums/galleries is what I always wanted to do ! Can lots of people relate to this ?
