Sulgrave Manor Trust is a unique independent charitable trust which owns and preserves Sulgrave Manor near Banbury, ancestral home of George Washington, first president of the United States of America. As an accredited Museum the Trust works to encourage access for diverse audiences and to encourage young people to achieve their full potential.
Whilst the Trust has hosted numerous apprentices and interns, this is the first micro internship opportunity with the organisation. Through this micro-internship, you will help to introduce new family audiences to museums and heritage attractions. You will research industry best practice, competitor offers, create templates for new activities, and consider promotion, logistics, and budgeting. This is a valuable opportunity for insight into a small charitable organisation and historic house museums.
Candidates will be considered from any academic discipline.
You will need to demonstrate:
Good written communication skills
Excellent personal time management
Ability to work independently and proactively
An interest in informal learning
Knowledge of and experience of producing written materials for a family audience is preferable, but not essential.
Please note that the Employer is unable to accommodate another week.
Students are required to commit to the full micro-internship - as with any professional placement - and any concerns about dates should be raised with the Internship Office in advance of making an application.
