Advocacy Jobs
Can you help us deliver our vision for the future?
After growing the business over the past few years, we now wish to make a step-change in how we care for and interpret the Nantgarw China Works and Museum site and enhance its viability. Reporting to the Chairman and Trustees, the appointed candidate will play a leading role in turning that aspiration into reality at this volunteer-staffed site.
Nantgarw China Works is where the world’s finest porcelain was made 200 years ago. Today it is an independent museum telling the history of ceramic production at the site, a working pottery where the lost recipe for making the historic porcelain has been successfully recreated, and an educational institution offering some 500 workshop sessions every year. The remains of the historic works are the best preserved in Wales and of UK importance.
Although the initial appointment is for 18 months, we hope that the appointee can be considered for a permanent position.
We would consider approaches from applicants who might wish to propose different working or remuneration arrangements.
