Learning and Engagement Officer

Art UK’s murals digitisation and engagement programme is using digital and physical engagement to raise awareness of murals and street art, and their place in our communities, and highlight the diverse artists involved in creating this art form.

With support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, we are recording and photographing murals across the UK. Painted murals constitute a large part of this project, alongside sculptural murals in concrete, brick, wood, stone, tile, and other materials.

The project’s Learning and Engagement programme starts in July 2025 and runs to the end of the project in December 2026. We will be running in-person engagement activities across the UK, working with outside organisations to create films and audio descriptions, and making learning resources for teachers linked to the UK’s National Curricula.

You are an experienced learning and engagement professional with a passion for developing and managing creative activities, from in-person events to digital classroom resources. You thrive on collaboration, working confidently with schools, artists, community groups, and project partners to bring learning experiences to life. A strong communicator, you can engage diverse audiences and share compelling stories through social media, blogs, and presentations. You understand the UK’s national curricula, and that resources related to Wales will be offered in the Welsh language.

Highly organised and proactive, you can manage multiple projects, liaise effectively with stakeholders, and contribute to evaluation and reporting. You are excited about art and its potential to inspire, and you are keen to play a key role in a digital organisation that is transforming public access to the UK’s art. Your commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion aligns with our organisational values, and you are passionate about contributing to a positive workplace culture.
