About the role

School of Visual Arts seeks an Exhibition Technician to assist in installing and deinstalling exhibitions across three NYC gallery locations. You will oversee day-to-day gallery floor activity, direct Exhibition Assistants, and escalate issues to the Academic Exhibitions Manager. You will also support inventory, organization, and planning between exhibitions, with hours varying by installation schedules and occasional extended shifts.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
