This is a unique opportunity to work on establishing a new Museum and Anti-Racism Archive for Scotland.

In January 2024, Scottish Government accepted in full the recommendations of the Empire, Slavery and Scotland’s Museums project.

We are now looking for a Lead Coordinator to manage and lead activities and campaigns relating to an initial period of significant development relating to the recommendation that:

“Scotland should create a dedicated space to address our role in empire, colonialism, and historic slavery. A new organisation should be created to lead this work”.

The post holder will play a crucial role in advancing the mission of the Scottish Museum of Empire, Slavery, Colonialism and Migration, focused on promoting antiracism, equality, and social justice.

This dynamic individual will develop, co-ordinate, and execute campaigns that drive awareness, engagement and support for the museum’s establishment, and its programmes and initiatives across Scotland.

The ideal candidate will be passionate about social justice, have excellent communication skills, and possess experience in advocacy or campaigning.
