Schools Ambassadors

Shakespeare’s Globe is currently seeking Schools Ambassadors to join us on a casual fixed-term basis.

We are committed to improving diversity and inclusion across our organisation. Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and the Global Majority are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet every single specification. If you’re excited about the role but your experience or qualifications don’t perfectly align, we encourage you to apply anyway. We particularly encourage applications from underrepresented groups such as the global majority, LGBTQA+, those with a disability and neurodiverse conditions.

The role:
To provide welcoming on-site support with theatre visits for students and teachers throughout spring and summer 2025 for productions in the Globe Theatre.

The project provides free and subsidised tickets to students aged 11-16 in London and Birmingham state schools to attend a production specifically designed for young people. In total, the programme will engage over 28,000 students.

The role will subsequently support summer season matinee and evening performances including significant numbers of schools audiences attending Globe Theatre productions of Romeo and Juliet, The Crucible and Twelfth Night across summer and early autumn 2025.

• Desire to provide excellent visitor care for students, teachers and visitors.
• Desire to work collaboratively as part of a front-facing team.
