About The Position

We are seeking a Digital Content Coordinator to support the development, input, and management of content across the museum's website, mobile app, and digital asset management system. This role is essential to the museum's opening, ensuring that digital content is accurate, properly formatted, and published on schedule.
The Digital Content Coordinator works at the intersection of content creation and technical systems—taking text, images, audio, and video from internal teams and preparing them for publication across digital platforms. This is a hands-on role requiring strong attention to detail, comfort with multiple software tools, and the ability to manage high volumes of content under deadline.
This is a full-time, 9-month term position with immediate focus on opening preparation. Post-opening, the role will offer expanded opportunities to support digital content production as the museum's digital presence matures.
