Contractual hours: 18.5
Basis: Part time
Job category/type: Fixed Term Contract
This is a fixed-term contract due to end 31/03/2026, with the possibility of this being extended if external funding is secured.
The Skills Development Officer is responsible for devising, planning and delivering programmes of work that help people from all parts of society develop their skills and careers in the cultural and creative sector.
These include RAMM’s Future Skills programme and its Youth Panel, as well as student placements, school work experience and supported placements.
The role involves recruiting and supervising placements; delivering training; mentoring, motivating and inspiring participants and evaluating the outcomes of the programmes. Reporting to the Audience Development Manager, this is an exciting opportunity, with huge scope for someone who wants to make an impact within an outstanding museum.

Experience of designing and delivering skills development plans for a wide range of people from different backgrounds and ages, including working with young people and students
Experience of motivating, supervising and developing people
Experience of developing collaborative partnerships with relevant learning organisations, agencies and educational establishments
A strong commitment to diversity and inclusivity in the workplace
Excellent written, interpersonal, and persuasive skills
This is a busy role and you will need to be comfortable working on your own initiative, able to balance various demands on your time. You will have a keen interest in museums, arts and heritage and will be an enthusiastic advocate for our work.
