Located in Sydney, Powerhouse Museum is the largest museum group in Australia. It sits at the intersection of the arts, design, science, and technology and plays a critical role in engaging communities with contemporary ideas and issues. It is custodian to more than half a million objects of national and international significance and is considered one of the finest and most diverse collections in Australia.

In 2023, Powerhouse has continued the delivery of its expansive renewal across its five platforms:

Powerhouse Parramatta – building one of the world's most significant cultural projects: a new flagship Powerhouse Museum in one of the fastest-growing and most culturally diverse communities in Australia.

Powerhouse Ultimo – renewing the much-loved Powerhouse Ultimo site to deliver expanded museum exhibition and learning spaces within a dynamic creative industries precinct for Sydney.

Powerhouse Castle Hill – completing the museum’s expanded new collection storage facilities, creating state-of-the-art public exhibition spaces, and establishing world-leading collection-management capabilities.

Sydney Observatory – restoring, enhancing, and reopening this important national heritage icon of astronomy, meteorology, and timekeeping.

Powerhouse Digital – facilitating global access to Powerhouse content, research, programs, and collection of more than 500,000 objects through the new web and Powerhouse Collection sites.

THE OPPORTUNITY

To support the renewal program, the Powerhouse seeks to appoint a web development and technology specialist to collaborate on the design and development of the new Powerhouse website and digital platform for the practice of the institution, its exhibitions, programs, content, and archives.
