About Us 

The V&A is a family of museums dedicated to the power of creativity – its power to entertain and move, to enrich our lives, open our minds and change the world. We celebrate and share that power through a programme of exhibitions, events, educational and digital experiences, a collection of 2.8 million objects, and through our support for new works and commitment to conservation, research, and sustainable design. Together, our work tells a 5,000-year-old story of creativity, helping to advance cultural knowledge everywhere, and inspiring the makers, creators, and innovators of today and tomorrow. 

As we expand our physical estate and broaden our audiences, so too are we transforming our technology architecture and approach to data. With an ambition to become data-led to power our commercial strategy and a need to embrace the process optimisation potential of technology to deliver change across the organisation, this is a pivotal moment to develop and lead the V&A’s technology and data transformation.
