Charting our course

Our key content themes are articulated in pictorial form here:

Who we are and what we do

• We are a collection of diverse sites with unique identities, overlapping interests and a common purpose.
• We are explorers of time, space, place and belonging. Our collections and subjects are about investigating worlds, crossing boundaries, bridging cultures, and creating connections. We are a place to explore the very essence of what makes us human.
• Our collections reach across continents, cultural divides, tumultuous seas and cosmic voids. Through our institution, we have a uniquely interdisciplinary potential – art, history and science – which we can tackle separately and in dialogue with each other.
• Our subjects are local, global and universal – they help us to pose big questions about the universe we live in, the planet we live on and its people.
• Royal Museums Greenwich has a social purpose at its heart – to serve our communities and stakeholders in line with our function as museums and heritage sites.
• We want to be a progressive national museum – brave and bold, relevant, inclusive, collaborative, proactive, ethical, informed and expert. We will listen and learn, evaluate and consult, working together to be a place by and for our audiences.
• We will strive to tell histories more fully, recognising different perspectives and working with stakeholders to be honest about the past, giving an equality of voice and recognising intersecting identities.
• We will support skills development, critical thinking, knowledge and understanding.
• Our primary aim will be to be relevant and meaningful, both reaching out and inviting people in, welcoming all and supporting their wellbeing.

Can you sponsor me to work for you/do I need a work permit?

No, we are unable to sponsor visas at this moment and we have a responsibility to check that all our employees are legally entitled to work in the UK.

If you're a non-EU national, please make sure that you can provide evidence of your eligibility to live and work in the UK before applying for a job with us.

Why am I being asked to provide personal information on the application form for a vacancy?

Personal data information is collected for the purpose of equal opportunities and diversity monitoring. It is stored separately from applications and kept confidential from anyone involved in hiring decisions.

Will I need a DBS check if my application is successful?

If your application for paid or voluntary work is successful, we’ll need you to complete a Disclosure for security clearance. This will enable us to access any information that the police or government departments hold about you regarding unspent criminal convictions (under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974). This helps us make safer recruitment decisions.

For some posts, particularly those that involve working with children, we will need you to complete an Enhanced Disclosure.

RMG does not currently offer internships. For further details of our work experience placements, please click here.
