Wellcome plans to spend £16bn over the next ten years, funding new discoveries in life, health, and wellbeing, and taking on three global health challenges: mental health, infectious disease and climate and health.

You will work with a range of different materials, approaches and perspectives and collaborate with internal and external stakeholders. You will develop ideas in dialogue with others including scientists, artists, researchers and people whose experiences can broaden our understanding of health and medicine, as well as demonstrate a commitment to inclusive practice.

As a curator you will:

  • Work with on the research, planning and delivery of exhibitions and displays, taking the role of lead curator on specific projects.

  • Contribute to Wellcome Collection's curatorial strategy

  • Act as an advocate and public spokesperson for the exhibitions programme and for Wellcome Collection

  • Contribute to a diverse and inclusive culture across the organisation, collaborating across departments.

Is this job for me?

We are looking for a curator who has experience in working across different media and with a range of different perspectives and collaborators. You will have strong research skills and be self- motivated but happy working as part of a dynamic team. Communication will be a strength, as will the ability to work well with people with a range of different skills and backgrounds.

We are looking for somebody who has:

  • Experience of developing compelling and accessible programming and engagement for a range of audiences.

  • Experience of working with artists and a range of different stakeholders inclusively on projects.

  • Knowledge of all aspects of producing exhibitions and displays including research, design, loans processes, marketing and press and promotion

  • Exceptional written and verbal skills, including the ability to represent Wellcome Collection publicly and communicate complex issues.
