Enablers

Are you pro-active, energetic and playful?
We're looking for people to join our museum front-of-house team: our Enablers!

Perform. Play. Bring Science to Life.

At Eureka! The National Children’s Museum, Halifax, we don’t just welcome visitors.

We ignite curiosity.
We build confidence.
We turn science into a show.

And we’re looking for someone who can help us do it.

Are you…

  • confident standing in front of a room full of children?
  • able to capture attention of all ages and abilities?
  • comfortable presenting science in a fun and theatrical way?
  • playful, energetic and quick-thinking?
  • someone who believes learning should feel like an adventure?

Can you take a school group from noisy to captivated in 30 seconds flat?

If that sounds like you, you might be exactly who we’re looking for.

About the Role

As an Enabler, our visitors are our number 1 priority, but you are not just front of house.

You are:

  • A storyteller
  • A show host

This is an active, physical role – you’ll be on your feet, moving, presenting, and engaging throughout your shift.

No two days are the same.
