The Science Museum Group's (SMG) mission is to 'Inspire futures' and we share our unparalleled collection of over seven million objects spanning science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) with over 3.8 million visitors each year, in addition to over 650,000 school visits and a huge digital audience. As the world's leading group of science museums, we are uniquely placed to draw people of all ages to engage with science in an inspirational and informal way with our extensive national and international programme of exhibitions, research, skills sharing and consultancy.
The Collections Committee is a sub-committee and advisory body of the Board of Trustees of the Science Museum (SMG Board). It provides a key governing role in the oversight of SMG's unparalleled object, archive and library collections.
We are seeking to appoint two independent members to our Collections Committee, for a period of up to 4 years.
The Group is seeking two candidates:
- One with significant experience in the management of historic collections in museums or heritage sites

In addition, both should ideally have
- An understanding of current risks, trends and opportunities in the museum and/or archives sector
- Experience of online audiences, digital access and digital preservation
- Experience in assessing and managing of risks and opportunities in major projects and programmes.
- Experience in offering strategic advice to management.
- Experience in prioritising activities and projects to align with strategic activities and priorities
Desirable
- Experience of museum or visitor facing programmes
- Experience of Executive Leadership
At meetings the Committee will:
- Give advice on collection strategies and how these support the fulfilment of SMG's strategic objectives
- Ensure that all collections work is research-informed and aspires to the highest international museums standards in collections management
- Advise on the initiation of new collections projects
- Consider the progress of major projects, providing expert advice and guidance
- Review and approve collections-related policies

- Promote sustainable management of the collections
