Museum Attendants are an integral part of the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum’s operations, staffing the museum’s lobby desk, greeting and orienting all museum visitors to the building and the museum exhibition content, and serving as a resource for visitor inquiries regarding exhibition content or even local services. Our Museum Attendants help the museum accomplish its mission of preserving and interpreting naval undersea history, science, and operations for the benefit of the U.S. Navy and the people of the United States.

Museum Attendants serve as the welcoming and competent presence at the museum, allowing U.S. and international visitors to learn about the history and technology of U.S. Navy undersea advances and endeavors. Museum Attendants carry out museum policies and procedures to ensure visitor and artifact safety and proper visitation accounting. Based on COVID-19 conditions, additional health and safety protocols will be practiced.
