We are looking for a HEO Policy Adviser to join the Cultural Property team in a newly-created post to help us manage our agenda and respond to the changing policy context, new priorities and new issues at national and international level.
The role will involve working with colleagues in the team and with partners and stakeholders within and outside government to develop, implement and manage policies and initiatives to:
- Deliver and maintain the cultural property statutory functions, in particular the Acceptance in Lieu and Cultural Gifts schemes;
- Protect cultural property in the UK and bring more of the UK’s important cultural property into public ownership;
- Manage and respond to calls for the restitution of cultural property from UK museums to other countries.
There may also be opportunities to contribute to policies and initiatives on other aspects of the team’s agenda, including task management of an Executive Officer (EO), as well as to take on cross-cutting responsibilities both on cultural property and across the wider Museums and Cultural Property team.
