Marketing Consultant Opportunity: help us to promote the Curiosity Museum
We’re seeking a freelance Marketing Consultant to help promote The Curiosity Museum, our innovative careers exploration tool to schools, colleges, careers hubs and local authorities across the West Midlands.
About The Project
The Curiosity Museum helps young people discover career possibilities through live pop-up workshops (available to book now) and a digital platform currently in development as a fully functional working prototype.
We developed this after learning that 50% of Year 8 students don’t know what they want to do after school.
Our approach is working – trials with over 700 students show exciting results:
- 89% discovered new career paths
- 80% reported increased career confidence
- Student anxiety dropped from 26% to 9%
The Opportunity
We’re ready to expand beyond our Herefordshire base to reach schools, colleges, and careers hubs across the West Midlands, partnering with Aston University’s Design Factory team.
We’re actively seeking education partners and young games testers to join us in completing and launching the full programme.

- £7,500 for 25 days
- November 2025 – July 2026
