Full Job Description

Description:

The Gallery Attendant I (GA I) position creates a warm, welcoming, accessible, and enjoyable experience in the museum’s galleries by engaging visitors in viewing and discussing works of art while also focusing on protecting the artworks. Scheduled at either of MOCA’s downtown locations—MOCA Grand Avenue in Downtown Los Angeles and The Geffen Contemporary in Little Tokyo—GA I staff the museum, queuing, and entry points during public hours, special events, and public programs; in addition, they handle ticketing admissions as well as membership sales and service. GA I help ensure visitor and staff compliance with the museum’s code of conduct. On an as-needed basis, they may be assigned MOCA staff office reception desk coverage which requires ability to execute emergency fire panel procedures.

Run check-in and staffing for special events and public programs, including organizing and communicating with people in line.
Maintain posts in the museum lobby and galleries during public hours and special events.
Assist MOCA Security in handling fire/life safety protocols, including medical incidents or emergency situations.
Participate in daily briefings and additional scheduled trainings, including curatorial walkthroughs of new exhibitions. When physical attendance is not possible, watch videos of trainings and walkthroughs.
Assist Leads in setting up and striking wayfinding devices, ticketing signage, and visitor engagement collateral.
Use Altru and XTruLink ticketing and scanning systems to capture accurate visitor information and process transactions in both free and paid admission contexts.
Be knowledgeable about MOCA membership benefits and how to join; suggest memberships to visitors.
Stay up-to-date on museum information by reviewing written all-staff communications and attending all staff meetings.
Stay up-to-date on policies and procedures as outlined in training sessions, staff meetings, as well as written handbooks and the VE Google Site.
Assist patrons with accessibility aids; use the two questions outlined in the Americans with Disabilities Act, to ensure proper access for prospective ticket-purchasers with service animals.
Perform other duties as assigned.

Upon satisfactory completion of a 90-day probationary period, essential functions will also include:

Complete training to provide logistical support during Contemporary Art Start hours.
Run pre-tour check-in and manage the restroom line.
Observe tours when appropriate offering extra art protection in the gallery
