About the role

As Public Programme Coordinator you will work on a varied programme of events and activities across Sheffield Museums sites that appeal to a broad range of visitors with different lived experiences and interests.

You will work alongside a small team to create experiences that encourage curiosity, learning and thought and generate income where appropriate.

About Us

Sheffield Museums Trust is the independent charity that runs six of the city's leading museums and heritage sites; Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet, Graves Gallery, Kelham Island Museum, Millennium Gallery, Shepherd Wheel and Weston Park Museum.

We believe that the museums and collections we care for belong to everyone and we know that connecting with them can make people's lives better.

Our vision is to develop ambitious, resilient, collaborative museums that represent, celebrate and inspire the people of Sheffield.

We want to make the city's museums welcoming, outward-looking and connected to the communities around them. We know that people encounter many barriers that make connecting with their museums and collections difficult.

We are committed to working collaboratively to make long-lasting changes so more people can use the museums to learn and reflect, and to find joy and inspiration.

Sheffield Museums is committed to becoming an anti-racist organisation and embedding equity, diversity and inclusion across all aspects of the organisation from the collections and programming to policies, procedures and workforce development.

As a valued member of the team, you'll get 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata if part time), life insurance and wellbeing support through our employee assistance programme.

We also promote a flexible working culture.
