Auckland Museum Volunteers

More than 220 volunteers work at Auckland War Memorial Museum.  A wide range of interesting volunteer roles are available making it a truely rewarding way to become closely involved with the Museum.

Volunteer roles

We are always keen to take on new people with the particular skills we require.  Our volunteers range from 18 to their 80s and come from a wide range of backgrounds. Some are retired, some students, and some work either part time or full time. The one thing they all have in common is a deep love for the museum and a willingness to contribute their time, skills and enthusiasm. Find out more about volunteer roles.

How to apply

Become a volunteer and support the treasures of our collections, the importance of the war memorials and the unique cultural heritage represented by the Museum. Your voluntary commitment will bring greater knowledge, more understanding and the pleasure of new encounters that enable you to share this heritage with others.

Meet Ros Currie, our Volunteer Coordinator
