About us

Since 2021, the SS Great Britain Trust has offered people in Bristol who are underrepresented in the heritage sector the opportunity to use the museum archive to generate creative work.  Originally funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, since 2023 the Trust has maintained this work independently, and we have recently secured funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to develop this work further.

We aspire to develop a participatory research practice which allows community members to explore the Trust’s entire archive collections, and for this to drive our site storytelling to bring relevance to the breadth of communities who call Bristol home.  We need someone with a unique set of skills and aptitudes to help this work grow. 

The Community Research programme encourages open and honest investigation and exploration, and empowers people to publish, write, draw and create from original archival material, developing and opening up positive and tangible bonds with new communities and audiences in Bristol.

Candidate description:

The candidate will work with the Trust’s curatorial team, our collection items, our communities officer, and cohorts of researchers from a range of Bristol communities.  Bringing these elements together, we want to meet someone who can facilitate non-museum specialists in generating research, storytelling and making creative outputs from those collections, in a number of forms.   These could be publications, public events, educational resources, art, literature and more. We’re looking for someone who will enjoy researching with historical materials and have the ability to link people and stories together.  They will work to unlock the barriers that exist between many audiences and heritage sites and support the overall development of Community Research within the wider work of the Trust.

It is essential that the person for this role has good knowledge of and be experienced in discussing and contextualizing history with individuals that do not have background or training in the subject.  We also want to overcome barriers by being flexible on the time of day and week that people can engage with us, so we’re looking for someone who is able to work flexibly, potentially for one evening a week and 2 weekend days per month.

Main Responsibilities

• Work with, and support visitors and researchers from all backgrounds and places to explore, research, publish and curate stories and histories of mobility, communication and globalisation as they relate to the SS Great Britain.
• Work with the Trust’s Communities Officer to scope and generate new opportunities for collaborative, community-led research and collections work and support the work of future Community Research cohorts in 2025 and 2026.
• Act as lead co-ordinator for an on-site community hub, a multi-use story space and flexible work area which will host community participants, and which participants will co-create and use to host others that they wish to engage
• Provide physical and digital access to the Trust’s Designated Collections for visitors and researchers and SS Great Britain team members
• When required, carry out documentation procedures relating to museum objects, including accessioning, photographing and making electronic records for new acquisitions and existing collections, and to become familiar with collections in such a way as to assist participatory research
• When required, manage safe use of the Brunel Institute and community hub to ensure both learning and enjoyment, and the safety of the collections, and supervise ‘Archive in Five’ public access sessions, creating a welcoming atmosphere for visitors
• Undertake historical research using material from both Trust and non-Trust collections and have the ability to link people and stories together

Person Specification

Essential

• Educated to degree level or equivalent in History or related discipline
• Evidence of working with historic artefacts and archive materials
• Ability to demonstrate co-operative working especially with non-specialist audiences
• Willingness to work flexible hours, including evening meetings and some weekends
• Awareness of museum practices and willingness to be fully trained in collections management procedures
• Basic awareness of museum object handling
• Commitment to continuing professional development
• Attention to detail and ability to respond to changing priorities

Desirable

• Evidence of working with community partners in project or volunteering work
• Familiarity with histories of the Atlantic World, maritime and/or imperial histories
• Experience of computerised data entry
• Experience of working with collections in a museum or heritage environment

We're looking for someone who understands why it's important to demonstrate that Disabled people can take a leadership role in their communities, who also has a deep understanding of voluntary sector groups.  This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who would enjoy supporting small voluntary groups to reach their goals, and representing their views and needs to partners. 

Inclusion Barnet is Barnet’s Deaf and Disabled People’s Organisation (DDPO), led by a board and senior management team of disabled people, and we’re passionate about using our lived experience of disability to work towards inclusive communities and greater social justice for all.  This role works with groups from across all Barnet’s diverse communities, and all work needs to be undertaken through an equality and access lens.  Therefore, we’re looking for someone with a demonstrable commitment to the social model of disability and disability equality, with their own lived experience of disability, and an ambition to contribute to a fairer society for all.  We also particularly welcome applications from global majority candidates, who are currently underrepresented in our organisation. 

The successful candidate will lead on delivery of our voluntary sector support activity, working as part of our award-winning Barnet Together partnership with Young Barnet Foundation and Groundwork London.  You will ensure we continue a strong delivery of our offer and that we increase membership and engagement, and act as Inclusion Barnet’s Operational Lead within the partnership.  You’ll undertake some delivery yourself, supporting groups with funding applications and more complex governance queries.  You’ll also convene Barnet’s Environmental Network, and attend some key local meetings to provide representation of the sector’s views. 

To succeed, you will either have previous experience of supporting community groups in a sector support role, or solid experience of third sector management, governance and fundraising.  You’ll be excited by the challenge of delivering this unique service and keen to build on the success of Barnet Together to date. 

You’ll be a great relationship builder with tact and emotional intelligence, and a champion for the contribution of the sector.  In return, you will become part of a friendly and supportive team, working within a focused but flexible culture, where diversity is valued and you can bring your whole self to work. 

This is a UK based role, and whilst much of it can be done from home we anticipate a need to be in Barnet twice a week on average.  We encourage flexible working to suit your work/life balance preferences where possible.  We also operate a Time Off In Lieu (TOIL) system. 

To apply, please submit your CV with a brief covering letter clearly stating how you meet the person specification, and outlining how you would use your lived experience of disability to deliver the role successfully.

At The King’s Trust, every role plays a part in creating brighter futures for our young people, and this one is no exception. As our new Procurement Manager, you’ll be central to ensuring that every pound we spend works harder for young people. From sourcing services to managing supplier relationships, your work will help us run more efficiently, ethically, and sustainably so that we can reach even more young lives with our support.

This is more than just procurement, this is purposeful procurement. You’ll lead major tenders, embed procurement best practice across The Trust, and guide strategic sourcing decisions that support equity, diversity, inclusion, and social value in our supply chain. You’ll oversee high-value contracts, and manage relationships with colleagues and suppliers alike. And with key projects in the pipeline, including ethical supplier initiatives and cross-functional procurement training, there’s plenty to get stuck into.

We're looking for someone who blends strategic thinking with day-to-day rigour. You'll need strong stakeholder management skills, experience with competitive tendering, and a good understanding of procurement governance—ideally within the charity or public sector. If you know your way around contract law, eTendering systems, and procurement data, even better. CIPS qualifications are a plus, but what matters most is your ability to make great decisions that align with our values and mission.

This is your chance to use your procurement expertise to drive real-world impact. Help us spend smarter, source ethically, and create lasting change for young people across the UK.
