Meet some of the team

Jade

Customer Service Assistant and Events Co-ordinator

I work at New Walk Museum, helping to keep our galleries open and accessible to the public. It’s a hive of activity - if we’re not stewarding galleries or welcoming school groups, we’re designing new gallery resources, arranging weddings, dealing with venue hire and working with local contractors to maintain the historic building. Every day has the potential to be different.
