London and travel to other UK sites.

IWM’s remit is global and inclusive in its exploration of war’s impact on the lives of men, women and children, from 1914 to the present day.

Our collection of over 33m objects covers all aspects of conflict involving Britain, its former Empire and the Commonwealth, and includes art, film, photography, printed material, documents and sound.

Through our family of five museums in London, Cambridgeshire and Manchester, off-site programmes, and digital content, we explore the causes, course and consequences of war and promote understanding and empathy, by connecting diverse audiences with human stories of ingenuity, courage, sacrifice and resilience.

We seek an initiative-taking and dynamic Chief of Staff (CoS). This pivotal role involves strategic planning, stakeholder and partner management, and the leadership of cross-functional projects.

The Chief of Staff works closely with the Director-General (DG) and key functional leaders to foster strong relationships with stakeholders and partners, ensuring they are consistently engaged and informed whilst promoting a ‘no-silo’ approach, ensuring collaboration and alignment across functions. This role also coordinates the Operational Delivery Group (ODG), making sure the group supports IWM’s broader strategic goals.

We are looking for a strategic enabler, who has coordinated and managed complex, cross-functional projects. The ideal candidate will have exceptional relationship-building skills and a strong capacity to influence outcomes through collaboration. Experience in managing corporate planning processes and engaging with stakeholders at all levels is essential.
