"Communities Curator"

Helping to deliver our innovative programme for schools, colleges, community groups, families and young people, we are currently looking for a Communities Curator to be part of our Engagement & Learning team.

John Hansard Gallery is a leading contemporary art gallery. We are part of the University of Southampton and an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation.

The Communities Curator will co-ordinate the JHG Ambassadors Programme and help to establish the Beacons Programme for entry-level creative employees. They will generate new projects with and alongside community and artists, feeding into fresh approaches to co-creation and socially engaged practices.

Experience of working in a similar role and environment is essential, along with a good knowledge of engagement and learning within a contemporary art setting. Experience of multi-tasking and outreach work is important.

We believe in fairness, diversity, equality and inclusiveness and making art accessible to all. We are committed to equality of opportunity in employment and encourage applications from all sections of the community.

Deadline for completed applications: Friday 17 October 2025

If you are interested in either position, there will be an opportunity to meet Lynne Dick, Head of Programme (Engagement and Learning) on Tuesday 7th and Monday 13 October to find out more about the role. Please contact lynne@jhg.art for more information and to book a time slot.
