Job Summary

This role is for a creative communications leader with a good understanding of the digital and media landscape. Reporting directly to the Director and collaborating with colleagues across the Museum and the wider cultural sector, this role is integral to positioning us as the only museum of its kind

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.

Reopening in 2021, and with four years of increasing visitor numbers, we are seeking a communications professional to join the senior team and direct our Communications, Marketing and Digital functions.

We’re currently honing a dynamic, partnership-focused new strategy to take us to 2031 and this role will play a key part in building on our reputation as a thought leader and growing and diversifying our audiences and reach.

We’re looking for someone who brings both strategic thinking and practical delivery skills across communications, digital engagement and marketing. The role involves leading on:

Developing and delivering communications and marketing strategies

Overseeing digital content and website development

Managing media and partnership activity

Using data and insight to grow and deepen our audience connections

It’s an opportunity to support a small, committed team and to contribute to the next stage of the Museum’s story.

If you’re an experienced communications leader, we’d love to hear from you.

A detailed job description is attached, and can be found via our website.
