Beamish is an internationally acclaimed open air museum with 650,000 visitors per year. We are leaders in our field – recognised for innovative and creative approaches to putting the needs of our visitors first. We use our outstanding collections to create an immersive experience that people value, telling the story of everyday life in the North East region through time.
Beamish is currently embarking on a major £17M redevelopment project, ‘Remaking Beamish’. The project, due for completion in 2020, will see a ‘new’ 1950s town built at the museum plus additions to our existing 1820s area. This is your chance to join us and help us on this journey, ensuring our museum continues to grow and thrive.
An exciting internship opportunity has arisen within the Partnerships and Communications team, working across all three departments: Partnerships; Communications; and Group and Venue Sales.

The core purpose of the role is to provide accurate and effective administrative and organisational support to assist with the development of Beamish’s network of partnerships, fundraising programme, communications activity, and the development of private hire and corporate events.
