BMGA is a ‘Major Partner Museum’ (MPM) receiving funding from Arts Council England (currently assured until April 2018) in addition to its core funding from its governing body, Bristol City Council. The natural science collections comprise over 1 million specimens of geology and biology ranging from pressed plants, taxidermy, entomology and osteology to rocks, minerals and fossils.

An experienced natural science curator is required to cover the maternity leave of the current post holder, for a minimum of 9 months.
