If the answer to all of those is yes, then you are potentially the person we are looking for! Leeds Museums and Galleries are seeking an inspirational, creative and highly organised educationalist to join our award winning Learning and Access team.

 

As the Learning and Access Officer (STEM Careers for All), you will have a talent for, and experience of, communicating with young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

You will supervise volunteers and casual delivery staff, and collaborate with colleagues on site and across the service to build on the existing learning programmes. You will be qualified to degree-level, or similar vocational qualification, with hands-on teaching, SEND and museums experience.

 

The Careers for All programme is part of the Real World Science Partnership with the Natural History Museum, London, and is funded by The Eranda Rothschild Foundation.

 

As a team, we focus on the three C’s: Curiosity, Creativity and Conversation. Want to join the conversation?
