As an independent charity Sheffield Museums is governed by a Board of voluntary Trustees and Associate Trustees.

Together with the Chief Executive and Directors, they help shape the strategic objectives of the museums, ensure they’re resilient and sustainable, and successfully serve the people of Sheffield.

We have a dedicated, talented team of around 100 staff – around 30% work full-time and 70% work part-time. The team is made up of several departments, each with a specific area of responsibility:

  • Collections
  • Communications
  • Commercial & Operations
  • Engineering
  • Exhibitions & Displays
  • Finance & Administration
  • Fundraising
  • HR
  • Learning & Participation

Our commercial activity, including our shops and hospitality offer, is carried out by a subsidiary company, SGMT Enterprises Ltd.

Feedback from our visitors and partners is hugely important helping us provide the best possible experience for everyone we welcome and work with. If you feel there’s an area where we can improve, we’d love to hear from you.
