About London Transport Museum (LTM)

Located in the heart of Covent Garden, London Transport Museum is the world’s leading museum of urban transport and an award-winning visitor destination. But we are much more than a museum—we are a heritage and education charity with a mission to ignite curiosity and shape the future.

We inspire the next generation of engineers, designers, scientists, and creatives by engaging every primary school in London. We collaborate with industry leaders to address key urban challenges, from smart cities to sustainable innovation. We are committed to closing skills gaps, addressing gender imbalances, and creating opportunities for underrepresented communities.

We are not a DCMS funded Museum and generate 80% of our income through admissions, fundraising and commercial enterprises. We are halfway through an ambitious five-year strategy (2023–2028), focused on sustainable growth, innovation, and impact. We’re investing in people, systems, and our public offer – all with a view to becoming Future Fit and ready for our 50th anniversary in 2030.

Safeguarding is central to our work. We welcome children, young people, and vulnerable adults through our programmes and ensure all staff and volunteers are DBS-checked, trained, and confident in our safeguarding procedures.

The Role

As Chief Financial Officer, you will lead the financial strategy and operations of LTM, ensuring robust financial management, governance, and performance. This is a pivotal role on the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), reporting directly to the Director and attending all Board meetings. You will also deputise for the Director when required.

This role goes beyond traditional finance leadership. You will be a moderniser—driving transformation, leading negotiations, overseeing broader business support functions, and contribute to LTM50, including capital programme oversight. You will be the face of financial and business systems at LTM, helping to deliver a future-fit museum aligned with our strategic vision.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the development and management of LTM’s overall budget, ensuring financial sustainability across short, medium, and long-term goals
• Oversee all aspects of financial control, governance, reporting, and compliance with statutory, charity, and TfL requirements
• Deliver timely and accurate statutory accounts, budgets, forecasts, and management reports
• Lead business support functions and liaise with TfL departments including HR, Procurement, Reward, Tech and Data and Finance
• Provide strategic financial advice to the Board of Trustees, SLT, and wider teams
• Represent LTM in financial negotiations with external partners and suppliers
• Champion a high-performing, inclusive finance team—setting clear goals, recognising success, and modelling LTM’s values
• Collaborate closely with TfL Finance to ensure alignment and efficiency
• Ensure all financial and legal obligations are met and policies are up to date and followed

The successful candidate will be a fully qualified accountant with a proven track record in senior finance leadership roles within complex organisations, and will be able to demonstrate:

• Experience at Board level and ability to work in collaboration with Trustees and colleagues;
• Understanding and experience of strategic risk management, finance audit and internal controls;
• Broad operational knowledge including digital transformation, estates, and HR;
• Experience navigating challenging financial climates and driving efficiencies.

This is an exciting opportunity for the right individual.  We are seeking a confident, dynamic and engaging individual with excellent communication skills and confidence to operate at the highest levels. Experience in the charity or cultural sector would be an advantage. If you are a strategic, forward-thinking finance leader ready to help shape the future of London Transport Museum, we’d love to hear from you.

Please submit your CV, with a supporting statement describing why you would be the best person to join this team and make London Transport Museum the best it can be.
