The London Museum of Water & Steam is looking for new Trustees to join our Board.
Based in a remarkable Victorian pumping station in West London, the Museum is home to some of the world's most important working steam engines. Our collections tell the story of how clean water transformed London, but we are not simply preserving the past. We are exploring how a working heritage site can help people engage with some of today's biggest questions around water, energy, innovation and environmental sustainability.
The Museum is entering an ambitious period of development. Alongside major conservation and audience development projects, we are exploring how historic steam power might operate without fossil fuels and what that could mean for the future of working industrial heritage.
We are looking for Trustees who can bring professional expertise, fresh perspectives and a willingness to help guide an organisation that is ambitious, entrepreneurial and keen to do things differently.
We are particularly interested in hearing from people with experience in:
- Finance and accountancy (including a Treasurer/Finance Committee Chair)
- Law
- Human Resources
You do not need to be an expert in steam engines or industrial heritage. We are particularly keen to hear from people who are excited by the Museum's future direction and the opportunity to help shape what comes next.
This is a voluntary role, with reasonable expenses reimbursed.
To learn more, please download the Trustee Recruitment Pack or contact the Chair of Trustees for an informal conversation.
