Would you like to join a team that brings people from all over the world

**About the role**
This is an exciting opportunity to work in the multi-award winning
MultakaOxford programme (Multaka means ‘meeting point’ in Arabic) as the
Community Outreach and Engagement facilitator at the History of Science
Museum. MultakaOxford is part of the journey of how communities and museums
can work more closely together, bringing people, communities and objects
together to strengthen understanding and celebrate our cultures, history and
identity by including more voices and experiences.
The Community Outreach and Engagement facilitator will work with people, the
museum collections and partners across Oxfordshire to plan and programme
events, workshops, outreach sessions and displays. The programme welcomes
everyone and provides structured support for people who may have settled/are
settling in Oxford as a refugee or asylum seeker. This role will support the

within the museum and across Oxfordshire’s community.
This role will be based at the History of Science Museum and supported by the
Project Manager, the Multaka staff team and wider museum staff.

(nicola.bird@glam.ox.ac.uk).
**About You**
You must have demonstrable experience of working with inter-cultural groups,
including people who are settling in the UK as refugees, asylum seekers, and
forced migrants.
Experience of working on projects and supporting the planning, delivering and
evaluation of collaborative projects is essential so that they are welcoming,
accessible, and inclusive.
It would be beneficial if you have knowledge and experience of working within
Oxford’s communities and can demonstrate a clear understanding of the role of
community engagement in museums.

reflected in the range of benefits that we offer including:

More information is available at https://hr.admin.ox.ac.uk/staff-benefits

friendly and inclusive culture. Diversity is positively encouraged, through
diverse groups and champions, as well as a number of family-friendly policies,
such as the right to apply for flexible working and support for staff
returning from periods of extended absence, for example, shared parental
leave.
