You will produce content for exhibitions, galleries and digital signage, working across multiple sites and collaborating with a wide range of stakeholders.

This role directly contributes to IWM’s mission to help people understand the impact of conflict by translating powerful stories, archive material and testimonies into compelling multimedia experiences. Your work will shape how visitors engage emotionally and intellectually with exhibitions, making complex histories accessible and engaging.

High-quality delivery in this role ensures exhibitions are immersive, accurate and accessible, supporting curatorial, learning and digital teams to deliver impactful visitor experiences. By maintaining professional standards in editing, storytelling and accessibility (including subtitles and audio clarity), you help uphold public trust and inclusive engagement.

The impact of your work extends to visitors, educators, researchers and internal teams who depend on engaging, reliable and well-produced media content within gallery environments.
