As you may be aware, on Friday 16 March, Irene de Boo will be leaving us as Head of Collections.
I believe we shouldn’t rush into necessarily a like-for-like replacement for Irene since we are in the midst of thinking about delivering Forging Ahead, while continuing, equally, to successfully run the Museum.
Therefore, I will be not be making an immediate appointment into the role of Head of Collections. The line management responsibilities within the Team have temporarily been re-organised. Individual members of the Collections Team have taken on extra duties to cover the post gap. We are investigating the short-term appointment of an Interim Head of Collections for the next four months. By summer 2018, we expect to be in a position to commence recruitment for a new Head of Collections.
