Job Summary
Job Description
We're the only Museum of the Home in the world - revealing home as an emotional, psychological, socio-political and economic space - as well as the bricks and mortar.
Museum of the Home is a movement as much as a museum - seeing home as a lens through which many of the vital issues impacting the world can be viewed and solutions found.
We are now seeking a Senior Curator to join the team, and shape the future of collections, research and galleries at the Museum of the Home as our Senior Curator. This pivotal role blends rigorous research, ethical collecting and dynamic gallery development to bring powerful stories of home to life. You'll lead on galleries and interpretation, manage a vibrant curatorial team, champion decolonising and community-centred practice, and drive research that feeds directly into public programmes and partnerships.
Closing date for applications is 5pm Monday 6 April. We aim to shortlist and let candidates know by 10 April.
Interviews will be held in person at the Museum on Thursday 16 April. Your interview will consist of competency-based questions related to your skills and experiences. If there is need for a second interview, we'll let you know.
