About

The Science Museum Group is seeking an exhibition design team to deliver the new Technicians galleries at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester. The gallery will follow the strategy established by the 2022 'Technicians: The David Sainsbury Gallery' at the Science Museum, using interactive approaches to communicate technical roles and inspire 11–16-year-olds to consider technical careers, while reflecting Manchester’s regional industries and context. The site is of unique global historic importance in the heart of Manchester, and the appointed design team will coordinate closely with the separately appointed architect, who is the Lead Designer.
