Gain valuable skills with work experience at the National Maritime Museum. Our one week work experience placement offers young people the opportunity to spend time working across a variety of departments, to gain a broad insight into different types of careers in the arts and heritage sector.

We work specifically with young people from pupil referral units, young offenders and young people NEET. 

Previous placements involved working within Exhibitions, Curatorial, Learning and Interpretation, Conservation, Library & Archives, Photography and Visitor Services Experience. You will have the chance to learn new skills, ranging from documenting objects in the photographic studio to reading and singing to children in an early years workshop.

We run this programme twice a year and have capacity for 5 young people per week. If you are interested in a placement at the museum please email youngpeople@rmg.co.uk or call +44 (0)208 312 8528.

If you are not a young person from the Royal Borough of Greenwich, you can find out about other work experience opportunities here.
