Job Description
Science communication sits at the heart of everything we do at CSC. In this role, you’ll continue to deliver inspiring STEM engagement first-hand at our venues, while also leading and developing our dynamic team of Science and Weekend Communicators.
Your goal is to ensure that every visitor enjoys a high-quality, meaningful experience — one that stands out as one of the most positive and memorable STEM encounters of their lives. Achieving this means cultivating a team that feels confident, supported, and genuinely excited to come to work each day.
You will foster a collaborative and supportive team culture, taking responsibility for training schedules and rota management. While maintaining a proactive, can-do approach to service delivery, you’ll also keep a close eye on team capacity — raising any concerns and suggesting solutions to management in a timely and constructive way.

Ensure the team is actively discussing and capturing insights about CSC audiences and the effectiveness of our interventions through observation, as well as formal and informal feedback.

Ensure our venues are kept clean, tidy, and low-risk, with a prompt and effective response to any unforeseen circumstances.
-
Ensure the team completes and archives risk assessments, and that any incidents are promptly resolved, handled effectively and considerately, and properly reported.

-
Ensure your team is well-versed in how to promote CSC’s products, services, and charitable mission — and that they do so actively and confidently.
-
Stay up to date with STEM news and best-in-class science communication practices across the sector.
-
Foster a positive team and organisational culture that is open, communicative, considerate, and respectful of others.
-
