Job description
Location Edinburgh Salary £32,171 - £35,093 per annum plus generous benefits and hybrid / flexible working Application Deadline Wednesday, May 13, 2026 Job Summary Full-time and Fixed Term to 31 March 2030 About the role We are delighted to announce a new opportunity for an Assistant Curator to join our Collection & Research team. In this role you’ll play an important part in helping to deliver our ambitious international touring exhibitions programme, enabling works from Scotland’s national collection to be shared with audiences around the world. The touring programme consists of bespoke exhibitions drawn from works that cover the breadth and range of the collection. We’re looking for a highly organised and detail‑oriented individual with the ability to manage time effectively and meet deadlines. You will already have professional experience of working in a gallery or museum environment, or with an art or heritage collection and have a particular area of art historical interest or expertise. You’ll be confident working both independently and collaboratively, supported by colleagues across the Collection & Research team. A clear and professional communicator, you will build strong working relationships with colleagues, partners, and stakeholders, while keeping relevant parties informed of progress and any issues. You will work with the dedicated international touring exhibitions team, and a wide range of stakeholders across the organisation, as well as with external partners. Therefore the ability to build effective working relationships and communicate clearly is essential. You’ll also be passionate about making art accessible to everyone and committed to supporting equality, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace. About the Touring Programme National Galleries of Scotland is launching an ambitious international touring programme contributing to our aim to make art work for everyone. This new initiative builds on past touring success and increases opportunities for the collection to be shared with audiences across the world. The touring programme is also part of our strategy to grow our income to ensure our future financial sustainability. Work has already begun and we are now recruiting a number of posts from May 2026 to support taking the touring programme forward. The programme will run initially to 31 March 2030. The success of the initiative will determine next steps for both the programme and the team supporting it. You will help to deliver this ambitious new initiative. This is an excellent opportunity for a results‑driven individual to demonstrate their impact and contribute to shaping the success of the programme. Closing date for applications The closing date for completed applications is 12 noon on Wednesday, 13 May 2026. Equality, Diversity and Inclusion At the National Galleries of Scotland we’re committed to embedding Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) in the way we work. We want everyone to feel a sense of belonging and freedom to be themselves at work or at play with us. Take a look at our Equality, Inclusion and Diversity priorities and commitments for more information. J-18808-Ljbffr
