Location: RHS Garden Wisley
Salary: £23,000 pa, depending on experience
Hours: 37.7 hours (5 days) per week, Monday to Friday
Contract Type: Permanent, full time.
We are looking for a Graphic Designer / Artworker who can take the lead on the design and development of all daily signage and wayfinding needs at RHS Gardens, Wisley. Wisley sees visitors in excess of 1.5 million visitors per year and this role is core to delivering an exceptional visitor experience to visitors, aswell as supporting the daily operations of different teams across our busy site.
The Graphic Designer / Artworker will design and manage the production of all signage and wayfinding requests to the Interpretation Team, working with different internal clients to deliver their needs. The role will range from the design and production of informational and directional signage to the design of Garden Maps, leaflets and paper-based trails in the Garden. As the RHS prepares to roll-out a new brand, core to the role will be to implement the new brand across site-wide signage and the ability to organise an easy-to-access filing system of all signage templates. The post-holder will manage the stock of print resources within the team, ensuring constant supplies and organising the servicing and maintenance of printers. Experience in liaising with external print production contractors would be an advantage. Where time allows, there will be opportunities to assist with interpretation projects in the Gardens to communicate scientific and horticultural content to our visitors in an engaging way.
This role is a great opportunity for an organised, self-sufficient graphic designer who has experience creating informational signage but who has an interest in developing wider skills to develop interpreted materials within a visitor attraction. Surrounded by 240 acres of Gardens, it would be hard to find a nicer environment to work in. So if you have the skills and experience we are looking for, please get in touch.
Do you want to use your love of the ocean to inspire our visitors? Are you passionate about contemporary maritime topics; from sea level rising to commercial fishing to the safety and wellbeing of seafarers?
In a time of climate and ecological emergency it is vital to increase ocean literacy (the understanding of the important role that the ocean plays in all our lives). This role will contribute to communication efforts to increase public awareness, develop ocean citizens, embed safety and sustainability principles, and build on our maritime heritage. RMG aims to open its collection, actively collect new objects, and undertake partnerships with external organisations in order to engage our audiences with a wide range of stories of contemporary relevance.
Contemporary maritime has a broad scope from ocean sustainability and the climate crisis to social history and the experience of maritime workers at sea today. This role will explore a broad range of potential topics from the potential of seaweed harvesting, sea level rising, global climate justice to the future of safe careers at sea.
The work of curators is central to the operation of the Museum so you will also be involved in other curatorial activities including research, exhibitions, publications, activities, and events. This will be a varied role and you will work closely with colleagues from other departments and also with researchers, academics, fellows, interns, volunteers and of course the public. As an Assistant Curator you will have a passion for ocean sustainability and life at sea with a desire to share your knowledge and developing expertise with different audiences.

What is Reading Sparks?
With funding from Arts Council England and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), The
Reading Agency is delivering Reading Sparks between 2021-2023, a pilot project which harnesses the
proven power of reading to engage families with STEM activities and build science confidence among
families in communities living with deprivation in England.
The Reading Sparks pilot project will test and pilot new ways of using creative reading to increase STEM
engagement. 11 pilot library service partners in England will distribute reading and STEM book and activity
bags to families who have been particularly disadvantaged by the pandemic.
At the moment we have four themed science and reading bags in circulation, these themes are; simple
machines, invisible nature, animals and the moon.
Library services are also working with local youth organisations, schools and social care partners to develop
positive, confidence-building activities for young people aged 14-18 based in reading and STEM. The young
people will work with library staff and youth workers to design new reading and science activities engaging
families with children aged 4-11 in the library space and via the library service’s digital offer.
Our overall aim is to build confidence and engagement with STEM among children, young people and
families and to demonstrate the role that creative reading and arts activities can play in sparking
engagement with a wide range of subjects and topics.
The Reading Sparks pilot is taking place in 11 different locations across England:
Barnsley
Coventry
Derbyshire
Halton (Merseyside)
Hillingdon (London)
Hull
Newham (London)
Portsmouth
Suffolk
Swindon
Torbay
You can read more on our website.
Why do we need your help?
As part of the project we are arranging visits from STEM communicators for these pilot locations. We hope
for visits to be made during the spring period of 2022, although this is flexible depending on your own
availability and the libraries schedule.
We are looking for STEM communicators who are experienced in engaging families to visit one of more of
the locations above and deliver interactive and ‘hands-on’ style family workshops.
These
workshops could have a focus on any aspect of STEM, as long as it is lively and engaging for
the audience and invites them to explore the subject further. Library services may take the
opportunity to promote and loan science and reading bags during your visit, but your workshop
does not need to be linked to the bags’ themes.
STEM communicators who have lived experience of STEM professions would be brilliant, especially
from under-represented demographics in the STEM sector.
We are also interested in STEM communicators who have links with one or more of the pilot
locations, although this is not essential. The reason for this is we want our families to be able to see
themselves in STEM, not just admire the achievements of others.
Experience or an understanding of the barriers to STEM engagement would be advantageous. We
are keen not to reinforce traditional stereotypes of STEM, such as it being for geniuses, boffins or
for ‘mad scientists’.
You are invited to submit a proposal for delivering workshops in one or more of the locations. This could
include pre-prepared workshops or workshops tailored for a particular location or locations. Selected
proposals will be made available to Reading Sparks partners to book directly.
We are working within the 11 pilot locations initially, but there may be opportunities to work with other
locations as the programme expands.
If selected then we strongly encourage you to speak with Reading Sparks partners at different locations in
advance of delivering your workshop in order to optimise the outcomes and to make links with in-library
groups and activity.
The project is independently evaluated and we will be able to share overall impact data over the
course of the project, we may also be able to provide anonymous comments received from young
people, children and families engaging in author/ illustrator events when available.
Submission process
If you are interested in submitting a proposal then please complete this short survey giving details of what
your workshop entails. You are welcome to contact Liz Jeavans in advance of submitting a proposal if you
wish to find out more about the programme or have any questions; liz.jeavans@readingagency.org.uk.
https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/ReadingSparksCommunicators
Deadline for proposals is 1 February 2022. All proposals will be looked at by a team consisting of The
Reading Agency staff, STEM communication professionals and our Reading Sparks library partners.
Shortlisted STEM communicators will be contacted by end of February when we will also make your workshop available for library partners to book directly with yourself.
