The National Gallery is home to one of the world’s greatest collections of paintings. As we seek to spread our love of art and our pictures, we have ambitious plans for our learning, digital, national, and international programs. The National Gallery is committed to ensuring access to its collection (and sites) for all, including children, young people, and adults at risk. We want to ensure that anyone who engages with the National Gallery—whether onsite, offsite, online, or in virtual environments—is protected from harm.
We have created this new role to centralise, improve, and create consistency across the Gallery’s safeguarding approaches; in person, online, within the Gallery, and for external projects by implementing up-to-date safeguarding requirements and frameworks. This role will work across many teams at the Gallery, including our Learning and National Programmes projects, events and workshops, Exhibitions, national partnerships, social media content and interaction, use of digital technology, virtual environments and online programming, filming and photography, events (including licensable activities), fundraising, building and refurbishment of public spaces, and procurement.
The successful candidate will work within the legal team in Trafalgar Square, supported by the General Counsel and led by the Gallery’s Safeguarding Lead (currently the Director of Public Engagement).
The ideal candidate will bring relevant safeguarding experience, knowledge of safeguarding practices and frameworks, and demonstrate an ability to work with a wide variety of stakeholders in an organised and systematic manner.
This is a permanent, part-time opportunity working 21 hours per week.
