Following a successful first three years of Arts Council England funding, and with a new brand identity, enhanced visibility across the sector, and a growing programme of activity, TEG is ready to move into an exciting new phase. We are looking for an experienced and passionate museum and gallery professional to lead us there.

Having previously been led on a part-time freelance basis, the current recruitment is for a salaried role which reflects our commitment to building long-term capacity and sustainability for the organisation.

You will also oversee a dynamic programme of professional development, workshops, and knowledge-exchange initiatives, supporting the creation of a diverse, inclusive, and accessible exhibitions profession.

What We're Looking For
We're seeking a leader with demonstrable experience of developing organisations with mixed funding models, alongside in-depth knowledge of the current challenges and priorities facing the exhibitions sector. You'll be a confident advocate, a skilled communicator, and a collaborative team leader.
