Research Officer

In National Museums NI’s Corporate Strategy 2021-2025, research is identified as a priority for the organisation, as we commit to ‘Develop our reputation as a sectoral leader in collections research that delivers meaningful impact’. An important aspect of this will be the submission of an application to UKRI for Independent Research Organisation (IRO) status, and the Research Coordinator will be responsible for progressing the application.

The post holder will also contribute more broadly to the work of the Collections Directorate and the overall corporate objectives of National Museums NI. They will be expected to work collaboratively with colleagues across all collections areas and other parts of the business both on an individual basis and as part of wider project teams.
