Careers
Trustees
Our Society requires two new Trustees, one to become the Society’s Honorary Secretary, and one based in Hammersmith & Fulham.
The role of the Hon Secretary is to ensure that the Society’s administrative and related functions are carried out either by the post holder, in collaboration with the Chair, or through the Society’s Director.
The Hon Secretary is an officer of the Society, and as such is a member of the Society’s Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GP).
We are looking for individuals who share our passion for William Morris, his family, colleagues, and network, and who are committed to furthering their work and ideas through the Society’s activities.
Please see the full job descriptions here.
How to apply: Please send your CV and a covering letter to: Gabriella Esser, Director: director@williammorrissociety.org
Applications are due by Friday 12th December.
In your application, please state which role you are applying for, either Hon Secretary or Hammersmith and Fulham based Trustee.
