The new role will oversee a part-time Finance Officer and will report directly to the Director of Visitor Experience, the Chief Executive Officer and the Trustee Board.

The BGI’s mission 

The charity’s mission is to educate the public about the art, science, history and technology of videogames through running a museum, provision of education and research. Our independent and diverse team of staff, trustees and advisory board works to:

• Create unique interactive exhibitions about games culture
• Inspire thousands of schoolchildren in engaging workshops
• Reveal careers in the UK’s fastest growing creative industry
• Encourage everyone to play and make games

Working at the NVM

We’re a small, hardworking and diverse team that has battled through adversity to create an award-nominated museum. We are creative problem solvers who believe in crafting fun and educational experiences that enrich our different communities’ lives. We’re passionate about our art form but don’t expect everyone to have deep knowledge of videogames. We’re adaptable and open to new ideas.
