  3. Customer care specialist. Proven ability to deliver exceptional customer service, with a friendly, responsive approach to handling enquiries and resolving time-critical issues, both online, over the phone, and in person.
  4. Detail enthusiast. Meticulous attention to the small stuff—from proofreading content to tracking customer feedback—with excellent organisational skills to manage multiple deadlines.
  5. Aligned with our mission. Like us, you're excited about Beaker Street's mission and love the idea of bringing people together through sharing science, art, and big ideas.
About Beaker Street

Beaker Street is a cultural organisation and registered charity in Lutruwita/Tasmania, with science and community at its heart. The brainchild of a fun-loving evolutionary biologist, Beaker Street is pioneering a new model of science engagement, where diverse adult audiences are welcomed into scientific thinking and discovery, with a generous serve of merriment, and a distinctly Tasmanian twist.

Since our launch in 2017, our core offering, Beaker Street Festival, has evolved from a nerdy night out into a prominent week-long festival and Australia's premier National Science Week event. Our Roving Scientist Program is on track to become a significant national outreach and professional development offering, and our youthful CoLab sci-art experiment continues to shatter misconceptions and promote diversity in STEM.

We've grown beyond expectations, capturing and sharing our enthusiasm for, and belief in, science. We're led by a small and passionate team, governed by a dedicated Board of Directors, and supported by a fabulous community of scientists and volunteers.

As we move toward our 10th year, we will continue to trailblaze the creation of a new model of science engagement through interactive, immersive experiences. Most importantly, we want to strengthen our position as an agent of positive change, a place where conversations get started, where voices are heard, and topics and ideas are shared.

How to Apply

Interested applicants should send a CV (including examples of creative work) and 1- to 2-page cover letter addressing the Selection Criteria to Marketing Manager, Errin Polegaj: errin@beakerstreet.com.au by 5:00pm AEDT on Tuesday 25 March 2025.
