meeting with museum staff and volunteers to discuss projects
administering the Stepping Stone Fund
providing advice and guidance to museums
organising training sessions and events
reviewing funding applications and providing feedback
writing project reports
monitoring budgets and project plans
liaising with consultants and partners on project delivery.

You will play a key role in strengthening the museum sector across Suffolk, helping organisations enhance their services and deliver benefits for communities.

You will need

We are looking for someone who is committed to heritage, communities, and making a difference. You will have:

strong communication skills, with the ability to advise, influence and build relationships
experience of planning or delivering projects, including managing competing priorities
the ability to organise training, events, or engagement activities
skills in analysing information, reviewing applications, and producing reports
confidence working with budgets and project plans
an understanding of museums, heritage, or community organisations.

The team

You will work closely with the Project Manager for Museums and colleagues across Suffolk County Council, as well as museum professionals and volunteers across the county.

This is a collaborative and supportive environment where you will have the opportunity to build strong relationships and make a real difference to Suffolk’s cultural and heritage offer.
