You will be responsible for:

Supporting collections management and access processes, focused on our textiles and wallpaper collections.
Facilitating Study Centre visits, collection enquiries, research visits, talks and exhibition tours relating to textiles and wallpaper collections and exhibitions.
Support Curators with all aspects of the delivery of exhibitions and collection displays.
Work with collaboratively with colleagues including in the Civic Engagement team, to help deliver the public events programme and public tours.

Experience of working on the production of exhibitions or similar creative projects.

Desirable Criteria:

Experience of using museum standard collection management software.
An interest in the discourses around transcultural curating and collaboration.

We value transferable skills and real-world experience as much as formal qualifications.
