JOB POSTING: ASSOCIATE PROJECT DIRECTOR, MUSEUMS10 WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Five Colleges, Incorporated (FCI) seeks an Associate Project Director for its three-year grant-funded Museums10 Workforce Development project. The associate project director researches, designs, implements, assesses, and refines a program of professional development opportunities for museum staff and for interns pursuing museum careers. By leveraging existing professional development opportunities; designing and delivering trainings; identifying subject matter experts for speaking and skill-building engagements; and implementing evaluation and assessment tools to optimize the program and prepare it for long-term use, the associate project director addresses identified needs and meets project goals.

This is a full-time, exempt, benefited position with Five Colleges, Incorporated. The primary work location for this in-person role is in Amherst, Massachusetts, but requires occasional in-person visits to the partnering museums.

FCI is the higher education consortium that supports the excellence of its member campuses — Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith colleges, and the University of Massachusetts Amherst — through extensive academic and administrative collaborations.

Among its many initiatives, FCI convenes Museums10 (M10), a collaboration among the member campuses’ seven museums and three affiliated museums (Historic Deerfield, The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art, and the Yiddish Book Center). Building on a long record of cross-museum collaboration, the Museums10 Workforce Development project is a multi-year, grant-funded program to develop professional skills among the museums’ workforces.

The Ideal Candidate

You could be a great fit for this position if you:

  • Find satisfaction in leveraging your own professional experience to help museum staff do their best work
  • Are motivated to figure out professional development gaps and to draw on that information in order to determine appropriate learning opportunities
  • Are motivated to figure out what staff teams want and need to know and can effectively draw on that information to determine appropriate professional development opportunities
  • Are as adept at identifying subject-matter experts as you are at delivering trainings yourself
  • Welcome the opportunities and challenges of working across multiple organizations, and can appreciate the capabilities and needs of each
  • Can communicate clearly and effectively

Importance of Diversity to our Mission

Five Colleges, Incorporated and its five associated institutions are committed to supporting and sustaining a diversity of people, backgrounds, experiences, ideas, and points of view for the essential contribution this diversity makes to the missions of our organizations. In support of this commitment, Five Colleges requires all of its employees to work cooperatively and effectively with the diversity of people within the organization itself, at the colleges, and in our partner organizations.
