The Senior Curator (maternity cover) is an in-person role based on-site at Gainsborough’s House in Sudbury, Suffolk. It is a role reporting directly to the Executive Director and part of the museum’s leadership team.

This is an exciting opportunity to join Gainsborough’s House at a crucial moment in our story. In 2027, we celebrate the tercentenary of Thomas Gainsborough with a landmark exhibition at his birthplace in Sudbury, Suffolk.

The postholder will manage a small curatorial and learning team, providing leadership and guidance, as well as determining work schedules and assisting with budget management. They will work independently and in collaboration with others to curate and deliver exhibitions and displays, working on all aspects of development and delivery. Sharing their passion for Thomas Gainsborough, our collection and broader exhibition programme, they will be able to work well with colleagues and specialists as well as general museum visitors.
