Sea War Museum Jutland & Havets Hemmeligheder are looking for a new general manager

Sea War Museum Jutland S / I is looking for a new general manager for our museum universe in Thyborøn.

We are not necessarily looking for a traditional museum profile. On the other hand, we are looking for a person with energy, insight and desire to contribute to developing a very special place, where history, experiences, volunteerism and entrepreneurial spirit meet.

The museums in Thyborøn today include both Sea War Museum Jutland and the new museum center Havets Hemmeligheder with several exhibitions and theme universes under the same roof. Together, we are one of Denmark’s most distinctive maritime museum- and experience environments – created without public operational support and driven by passion, volunteerism and the desire to tell the stories that others often overlook.

• is good for people and relationships

• turisme

• kultur

• event

• detail
