At the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds we’re looking for a dynamic museum educator to play a key role in our Education Team. In this post you will develop and deliver unique, world-class formal learning programmes and resources for Early Years, KS1-3, 16+ and adult education audiences with a dedicated team of Education Assistants and Volunteers both at the Museum and online.

The Royal Armouries cares for one of the world’s oldest museum collections, presented at our headquarters and flagship museum in Leeds, at our historic home in the Tower of London, and at Fort Nelson near Portsmouth. The Royal Armouries Museum presents a stunning display of over 7000 artefacts dating back 3000 years and from all over the world.

The successful candidate will help bring our national, iconic collection to life in a programme that combines academic rigour with creative flair, in-the-moment flexibility with an eye always on the goal, and serious-mindedness with a sense of fun.

If you are an exciting, versatile communicator with a passion for museum education and recent experience of delivering and supervising programmes for a range of formal learning audiences in a heritage context; and if you are up for a challenge, we would like to hear from you.

This position is permanent working full time, 36 hours per week, 5 days out of 7 Weekend, Bank Holiday and evening working may occasionally be required.

An Enhanced Disclosure and other security checks will be requested in the event of a successful application. However, a criminal record would not necessarily be a bar to employment. Any decision made would depend upon the nature of the position and the circumstances and background of the offence.
