Collections Researcher at Migration Museum, London

The Migration Museum is seeking a Collections Researcher to play a pivotal role in helping us to develop a ‘dispersed collection’ around migration themes and to define our heritage focus as we work towards delivering a permanent Migration Museum in the City of London.

In this role, you will lead the audit of c.200 migration-related community heritage projects, oversee research into the collections of 7 partner heritage institutions across the UK, and develop a conceptual framework and strategy for building a dispersed collection for the Migration Museum, highlighting migration stories that resonate with our diverse audiences.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a researcher with significant experience working with museum collections to help us gain a better understanding of migration-related collections and materials held by other museums, including those that are underused or forgotten, and to help us develop a physical collections strategy for the Migration Museum.
