Opal Museum Tour Guide

This position is for a tour guide at the opal museum. As a tour guide, you will welcome and introduce visitors from all over the world to our national treasure, the precious opal.

The museum tour lasts approximately 45 minutes. You will share knowledge about the formation of precious opal, the different types of precious opal, interesting stories from opal miners, and show them the opal collection.

Our guides are well-presented, sociable, have good voice projection, and are able to improvise. We are seeking an individual who can work effectively both independently and as part of a team, and who can adapt to various situations.

This role includes some basic administrative duties but also specific museum-related tasks. It will be a plus to have knowledge about Brisbane, its museum/art gallery scenes.

There are two types of tours:

  • Self-Guided Tour: Visitors enjoy the museum at their own pace with our digital tablets. This tour includes an audio-visual self-guided tour, a pass to all museum displays, and a viewing of our most valuable and amazing opal specimens.
  • Guided Tour: Visitors have a personal opal tour guide, a pass to all museum displays, and a viewing of our most valuable specimens.

We have a jewellery shop, adjacent to the museum. It showcases an extensive range of opal jewellery and loose unset opals.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Delivering high-quality customer service face-to-face, as well as via email, phone, and text.
  • Assisting with administration and minor museum-related tasks.
Ideal Candidate:
  • A friendly, well-focused, and organized individual.
  • A geoscience education would be beneficial.
  • This position is for 9 months and requires a minimum of 3 days per week, with the opportunity to expand to more days. Working occasionally on weekends is a plus to your application.

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team and share your passion for opals and the museum experience with visitors from around the world.

Benefits:
  • The chance to work in a unique and dynamic environment.
  • The opportunity to develop your skills and knowledge in customer service, administration, and museum-related tasks.
  • A fun and supportive team environment.
How to Apply:

Send your application, including a cover letter and resume, to us.
