Funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, this role will lead community outreach activity and work closely with local partners to deliver an ambitious pre-opening programme in the lead-up to the museum's reopening.

This is an exciting opportunity to help ensure that young people play a central role in shaping the future of Fashion Museum Bath.
