Culture Perth and Kinross is a dynamic cultural trust which aims to be at the heart of communities, connecting people, ideas, knowledge with the rich heritage and diverse cultures of the region.

Following the successful completion and opening of Perth Museum, we have a refreshed strategy to nurture and grow its individual giving and corporate partnerships.

Are you experienced in supporting organisations to build infrastructure through undertaking administration tasks?

Are you passionate about raising voices of communities who are most affected by climate but who are least often heard? If so we’d love to hear from you!

We are particularly keen to hear from people who experience marginalisation and minoritisation or who are often excluded from decision-making processes. For example, people of colour; people from working-class backgrounds; people from LGBTQ and migrant communities; care-experienced young people and people with disabilities.
