Dundee Science Centre is an award-winning visitor attraction based in the heart of the ‘the coolest little city in Britain’ (GQ Magazine). We are a Charity, and our mission is to make science accessible. We achieve this through attracting visitors to our centre to be amazed and informed by our science, technology, engineering, and maths (STEM) inspired installations and experiments; delivering compelling STEM experiences in schools and communities; and collaborating with researchers and companies to make complex concepts more relevant.
Dundee Science Centre is at exciting stage of our evolution. As we celebrate 25 years of making science accessible across Tayside and North Fife, we are developing our strategic plan for the next 5 years. To support the implementation of this plan we will need a coherent and comprehensive marketing and communications plan to support our ambitions, that’s where you come in!
We are looking for a creative and ambitious individual to join our team. We need someone who is passionate about the role of marketing and communications and is inspired by our mission to make science accessible.

As part of a small team, you will have the opportunity to work across all marketing disciplines with an emphasis on consumers. You will also collaborate with our senior leaders to develop corporate messages and internal communications.
The successful candidate will also have an external facing role, supporting events and attending conferences to network, learn and raise Dundee Science Centre’s profile.
You will also be responsible for collaborating with colleagues to plan and manage individual campaigns to support specific activities/themes. This will require not only a highly collaborative approach but also the ability to develop and execute plans on time and to budget.
You will be an advocate for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion contributing to the implementation of Dundee Science Centre’s widening access strategies.
