Job Introduction

About Us

Oxfordshire County Council are seeking to appoint a Maternity Cover post to the role of Curator of Social History at the Oxfordshire Museum Service . This is an exciting time to join the Oxfordshire Museum Service as we continue to develop our services, and enhance access to our collections and services.

Our collection totals 112,000 objects from the palaeolithic era to contemporary collecting. The social history collection forms roughly half of our overall holdings and is diverse and broad ranging. We make our collections accessible via our range of services including through our key operating sites. The Oxfordshire Museum is our flag ship site and attracts over 100,000 visitors every year. The site includes an accessible green space, permanent and temporary galleries, learning space, café, shop and library. The Museum Resource Centre is our bespoke storage and conservation centre. Home to tens of thousands of objects as well as curatorial and learning staff accommodation. The service also manages two remote sites, Swalcliffe Barn (near Banbury), a medieval tithe barn with agricultural collections and the Bishops Palace (Witney) an open archaeological site of special historic interest.

About the Role

The Curator of Social History co-leads the Collections team alongside our Curator of Archaeology who collectively care for and manage our collections and support access to them. This post works with a range of colleagues, volunteers and the public. No two days are the same at the museum service!

The post reports to the Museum Service Manager who has overall responsibility for the Oxfordshire Museum Service. This role forms part of the service management team and is integral to the development and management of our site and operations.

About you

The successful applicant will bring demonstrable curatorial knowledge and expertise to the role. They will have a passion for making collections accessible in a range of ways for diverse audiences and users. The postholder will provide effective 'caretaker cover' during our Curator's maternity leave and support with any preparation work needed to help the service transition through the forthcoming Local Government Reorganisation process. You will come with ideas to refresh our collecting practises, ensuring our collections represent modern Oxfordshire and its people.

They will also have a strong working understanding of best practise in collections based work, ideally in a social history / mixed media collections setting. Supportive line and team management is also important and the postholder will be able to demonstrate an effective track record of managing and leading people.

They will be happy to work independently and as part of the service management team, collections team and wider museum family.

For an informal discussion about the role please contact Jemma Davey, Museum Service Manager on [email protected]
