Volunteer Opportunities

Join Our Team at the Wonders of Wynyard!

The Wonders of Wynyard thrives on the enthusiasm and dedication of our volunteers, who help create a warm and welcoming experience for visitors. Whether you’re looking to commit to a regular shift or prefer a more flexible schedule, we’d love to have you on board. Shifts are available in the morning or afternoon (4 hours each), or you can volunteer for a full day. There’s no minimum commitment—any time you can give is greatly appreciated! Full training is provided.

We currently have two exciting volunteer roles available:

Customer Service Officer

Be the friendly face that greets our visitors! As a Customer Service Officer, you’ll provide helpful information on local attractions, accommodation, dining options, and travel tips. Volunteers assist with brochure selection, itinerary suggestions, and general visitor inquiries, ensuring each guest enjoys a memorable experience in our region.

Veteran Car Collection Volunteer

Step back in time and help showcase our incredible collection of veteran cars! Volunteers in the museum welcome visitors, share fascinating insights about the collection, and help maintain the exhibits to a high standard. Tasks include polishing brass, keeping the vehicles and display areas pristine, maintaining air pressure in tyres, and ensuring the collection remains in top condition for everyone to enjoy.

If you’re passionate about our local community and enjoy meeting new people, we’d love to hear from you! Get in touch today to find out more about joining our volunteer team.

What an excellent place to visit not only the displays of the vintage cars but the staff were pleasant. The whole experience was extremely nice. A great surprise to see so many vintage cars, bikes and motorcycles. And a good supply of local goods Especially alcohol and other trinkets that you can buy from the area

My wife and I, traveling in North Western Tasmania this month from Victoria, wish to say how delighted we were with many attributes of your Shire. But we want to express delight at our visit to Waratah. I suppose we were expecting to see a run down mining town. Instead we saw a town with tidy streets, clipped lawns, and a delightful setting with the waterfall spilling through the town centre. We visited the Atheneum, and were amazed at the wonderful display picturing the story of Waratah and its people. The attendant, a delightful and helpful Council representative was on duty. How nice was that? And across the street, the museum added to our visit. We would love to have been able to visit a coffee place or bakery, but maybe the demand isn't great enough. A stroll around Waratah was our main focus, and that was a delight..

Overall Experience The Wonders of Wynyard Exhibition and Visitor Information Centre is an excellent stop for both information and local attractions. I stopped in to gather some local information and was warmly welcomed by very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Staff & Service Ellie and Colin were particularly helpful, taking the time to assist and provide guidance. Their professionalism and welcoming approach made the visit very pleasant. Exhibitions The centre features a beautiful exhibition of vintage cars, with adult entry priced at $11 and well worth it for anyone with an interest in automotive history. In addition, there is a lovely free exhibition showcasing works by various local artists, as well as an impressive collection of Japanese dolls that was generously donated to the centre. Facilities & Parking The facility is well presented and easy to navigate, with free parking available, making the visit convenient and stress-free. Overall Impression A well-curated centre with friendly staff, engaging exhibitions, and helpful local information. Highly recommended for visitors to the area.
