We are looking for a senior curatorial leader to join our management team and help deliver the gallery’s programme, mission, and strategic priorities. The postholder will play a leading role within our curatorial team, embedding transcultural perspectives across our programmes, contributing to the Whitworth’s strategic priorities to acknowledge the diversity and global interconnectedness of art and their histories. They will lead the development and delivery of specific programme strands, collaborate on shaping collection displays, exhibitions, and their interpretation, shaping research agendas, and helping develop international partnerships. The role will contribute to acquisition and interpretation strategies, curatorial practices, public programmes, and digital initiatives — all through a transcultural lens.
