Relationship manager, Rethinking Relationships

Rethinking Relationships is a collaboration to develop and adapt museum
practice to build trust with communities and improve access to collections
from Kenya, Tanzania, Ghana, Nigeria, and Uganda. It aims to respond to
questions all museums must face about how they interpret, record, and acquire
collections. The project seeks to employ two relationship managers who will
work with UK diaspora communities and communities in five countries. You will
act as the main connectors between engaged communities and collections. You
will liaise and support the handling of collections for communities both in
the UK and in Africa. It is expected that the two Relationship Managers will
clearly split the partner museums between them and will be based in one of the
four partner museums ideally with one based in either the Horniman Museum or
World Museum, National Museums Liverpool; and with the other based in either
the Pitt Rivers Museum or Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.
Travel between the museums will be expected.





These two roles are essential for the successful delivery and achievement of
this ambitious project. You will work closely with communities, the Project
Coordinator and relevant staff from the four partner museums.
