Organisation
Description
The Dunedin Gasworks Museum is part of the now closed Dunedin Gasworks which was New Zealand’s first and last gasworks, operating from 1863 until 1987. It is one of only three known preserved gasworks museums in the world. This is a significant local and world heritage site.
Interested in steam engines? This role is to support the boiler operator when we are steaming.
The main objective is for additional safety but if you wanted to learn more about boilers and steam engines this would be an ideal opportunity and training would be available if you wanted to be able to be an operator. If you have study to do or other tasks we have free wifi, and only would ask to safety check every so often and help if needed, so ideal for students who want to clock up some work experience.
Requirements
Common sense, good communication and good health. Police check.
Time commitment
Usually Sundays, once a month would be the normal frequency. Some times there will be special events.
