University of the Arts London is a vibrant world centre for innovation, drawing together six Colleges with international reputations in art, design, fashion, communication and performing arts.

The Fashion Space Gallery at London College of Fashion is a contemporary exhibition space, hosting displays of fashion-related arts. As Curator, you will be responsible for creating a critical and experimental exhibition programme that encourages diversity and reflects our growing reputation as a global leader in fashion education and research.

As well as promoting the Gallery through events, print, the web and the media, you will work with artists, designers and technicians to ensure that exhibitions are delivered on time and to budget. You will also develop the Gallery's commercial activities, while searching for additional funding, together with colleagues.

As a senior member of the team, you will be expected to contribute to strategic planning. For this, you will need managerial and curatorial experience, plus a relevant postgraduate qualification (or equivalent). We are also looking for enthusiasm and an awareness of developments in your field. With these talents, you will be capable of bringing innovative thinking to gallery management and introducing a new approach to our exhibition programme.

In return, we offer a competitive employment package, including a salary that reflects working in London; generous annual leave; a final salary pension scheme; and a commitment to your continuing personal and career development in an environment that encourages creativity, diversity and excellence. Relocation assistance is also available.
