This guidance note is intended to help trustees of museums and heritage organisations with planning to recruit a manager or member of staff for their organisation. It focuses on the stages of recruitment that take place before you even advertise, as well as outlining where you can find more information to help with running the recruitment campaign itself.
Whether this is your first paid employee or the latest of many, effective planning at the early stages is the foundation of a strong recruitment campaign and successful employment relationship with your chosen candidate.
This ensures your organisation is clear about the purpose of the job and how it will fit in, as well as making sure you have considered how to manage, motivate and retain the successful candidate once you’ve found them.
