Trustees wanted for Nantgarw China Works Museum
Nantgarw China Works is home to the finest porcelain ever produced. It was established in 1813 and produced porcelain that has achieved international fame before producing earthenware for daily use until 1920. The site was rescued from total decay in 1990 but many of the Scheduled historic structures remain in urgent need of care. Today the China Works is a museum displaying the history of the porcelain and pottery produced at the site, a working pottery where three ceramicists are based (one of whom produces porcelain items from the rediscovered recipe of 1813), and a major teaching institution running some 500 workshop sessions in heritage crafts. The site is a popular venue for local groups and societies as well as an increasing number of coach tours.
Since 2007 the Museum has been operated by a charitable trust which determines the strategic directions for its development. It is staffed by volunteers who carry out a wide range of duties under the oversight of our Strategic Development Manager. After considerable growth over the past decade, we are now focussed on the steps necessary for expansion and sustainability. We are currently seeking to achieve Accredited Museum status and in line with our vision and the conclusions of a recent Options Appraisal exercise are working on developing a multi-million-pound application to ‘transform where the world’s finest porcelain was made into a vibrant centre for ceramic history and contemporary innovation.’
At this exciting time in our history, we would welcome applications to join the existing seven members of the Trustee board. Trustees are unpaid and meet formally six times a year but are expected to develop a close relationship with the site and help in any way they can. Working together, Trustees are expected to:
- Set the strategic framework and direction to enable the Museum to deliver benefits to the public, to achieve its goals and to flourish
- Ensure that the charity is carrying out its purposes for the benefit of the public
- Comply with our governing document and the law
- Act in the charity’s best interests
- Manage the charity’s resources responsibly
- Act with reasonable care and skill and ensure the charity is accountable
- Adhere to the Code of Ethics for museums
We would be particularly interested in hearing from applicants who can contribute in the areas of:
- Education, learning and public engagement, particularly in the context of the new Welsh Curriculum
- Historic buildings management and building conservation
- Emerging technologies for interpretation and presentation
Nantgarw China Works is dedicated to diversity, equality and inclusivity. We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds. Our commitment extends to providing an inclusive recruitment process. If you require accommodations or have specific needs, please let us know.
