Leeds, United Kingdom Leeds City Council Full time

We are seeking dynamic and skilled educators to join our highly successful casual school delivery team at Leeds Industrial Museum. You will deliver an established programme of curriculum-linked interactive workshops to school groups. At Armley Mills, one of our most popular workshops is the fully immersive, ‘in role’ Victorian Schoolroom, where the Facilitator takes on the costumed role of a Victorian school teacher and leads the class through the workshop entirely using first person interpretation. Knowledge of the Industrial Revolution and Victorian periods and a love of acting would be helpful.

Leeds City Council is one of the largest employers in the region with over 14,000 employees. We seek to recruit and develop talented individuals who embody our **council values** and **ambitions**.

**About you**

As the Learning Facilitator at Leeds Industrial Museum, you will be:

- Highly organised and be able to juggle the practicalities, differentiation and accessible requirements of a group visit to a museum
- Able to work colleagues from the venue team and the Learning and Access Officer
- Curious, responsive and adaptable to existing and new audience needs and interests.

**About the role**

As the Learning Facilitators you will deliver the popular school workshops at Leeds Industrial Museum. The workshops are high quality, creative, differentiated and accessible, collection and exhibition focused and interactive. You will set up the workshop, meet and greet the school group, lead the group through a child-centred 45 minute - 2 hr workshop (teaching to the workshop plan developed by the Learning and Access Officer, whilst being responsive to the children and teacher’s needs), give out evaluation forms to the teachers and students, close down the activity and pack away. You will be qualified to degree-level, or similar vocational qualification, with hands-on teaching or museums experience.

Learning is at the heart of Leeds Museums and Galleries. We welcome, inspire and engage diverse audiences with collections and exhibitions and enable people to build their own interpretations. We are a strong Learning and Access team, who are leaders in the field of museum and gallery learning. We develop innovative ways of celebrating material culture using object and artwork learning and robust, research orientated practices. As a team, we focus on the three C’s: Curiosity, Creativity and Conversation.

**What we offer you**

We take pride in offering the best employee experience, with benefits including:

- a competitive salary and annual leave entitlement plus statutory holidays
- membership of the West Yorkshire Pension Fund with generous employer contributions
- a clear career pathway and continuing professional development opportunities
- a range of staff benefits to help you boost your wellbeing and make your money go further
