Art Installations Manager

Culture Careers · Maharashtra, India

A world-class cultural institution in Mumbai is hiring an experienced Art Installations Manager for a full-time permanent role across multiple high-profile special projects.

This role is for someone who has worked hands-on with contemporary art - in galleries, museums, art fairs, exhibition companies, or specialist art logistics - and understands the precision and care that serious art programming demands.

Role: Art Installations Manager

Location: Mumbai

Type: Full-time, permanent

Salary: 10 to 11 LPA position 1 and 6-7 LPA position 2

Experience: 3 to 6 years in art installations, gallery operations, or exhibition management

Urgency: Immediate hire

What you will do

• Plan, coordinate, and supervise art installations across multiple locations and special projects
• Manage movement, storage, and care of artworks across sites
• Coordinate with artists, curators, and installation crews for seamless execution
• Conduct site visits to assess requirements and resolve on-site challenges
• Maintain installation schedules, condition records, and inventory documentation
• Oversee dismantling, repacking, and relocation of artworks
• Ensure all handling and transportation meets conservation and safety standards

You are right for this if you have

• 3 to 5 years hands-on experience in art installations, exhibition production, or gallery operations
• Direct experience working with contemporary art in a professional environment - gallery, museum, art fair, biennale, or cultural institution
• Knowledge of artwork handling, condition reporting, and fine art logistics
• Experience coordinating across artists, curators, and technical crews
