About the Role
Building on the success of our Pigment Stories series, we are developing a fresh narrative angle - one that brings art history, materials, artists, and ideas into meaningful dialogue with our global audience. This role will be central to shaping and presenting that narrative along with our creative team.
This is a unique opportunity to join a creative, forward-thinking team at a time of exciting growth. You'll be part of shaping how Jackson's communicates with artists around the world, connecting the past with the present, the technical with the poetic, and the visual with the intellectual.

If you're confident speaking on camera, curious by nature, and passionate about sharing your love of art with others, we'd love to hear from you.
Please send some examples of you presenting or speaking in public, with on-camera confidence.
