Job Description |
|
The Horniman Museum and Gardens in south east London has been open since Victorian times, when the tea trader and philanthropist, Frederick John Horniman first opened his house and extraordinary collection of objects to the local community. Since then, our collection has grown significantly and includes internationally important collections of anthropology and musical instruments, as well as an acclaimed aquarium and natural history gallery – all surrounded by 16 acres of beautiful Gardens offering breath-taking views across London.
The Content team comprises experts in our collections of Anthropology, Musical Instruments, and Natural Sciences, and in social practice, schools learning, community engagement and volunteering. Their collaboration and expertise helps share knowledge, deepen understanding and tell stories emanating from our collections to our visitors in ways that achieve our mission and priorities and raise the profile of the Horniman nationally and internationally. |
