Escape's take on British Museum

The British Museum’s remarkable collection spans over two million years of human history. What a thing to be able to say. Not only does it house the largest and most comprehensive collection of Egyptian antiquities outside of Egypt, it is a treasure trove of fascinating exhibits from all periods of history. Needless to say, there’s a lot going on behind the scenes to keep this place running. And you could be a part of it. These guys offer a vast array of opportunities, from conservation and curator roles to education, design and marketing. So why not get lost in the corridors of the British Museum (metaphorically speaking) and try your hand at a role with real substance and historical significance.
