Working at Glasgow Science Centre

To achieve our Mission and Vision we aim to attract people with a variety of skills and experiences who can inspire, challenge and engage with our wide range of visitors.

Investor in People

In January 2007 we were accredited as an Investor in People. This award confirms our committment to achieving success through our people. Investors in People have also selected Glasgow Science Centre as a case study - a copy of this is available under the downloads section on this page.

As a 5* visitor attraction we are committed to giving our customers an excellent experience. Many of our posts require specific skills, however it is essential that everyone employed is willing to work in a team focussed environment and has excellent customer service skills.

Although not essential, we would be grateful if you would please complete the Equal Opportunities Monitoring Form. The details supplied on this form do not affect your application and are used for the sole purpose of monitoring the effectiveness of our equal opportunities policy.

Work experience

Due to the high demand for work experience and to ensure we can provide full support, we have to restrict the number of pupils we offer work experience opportunities to. All work experience applications should be made through Glasgow City Council Work Experience Unit.
