About the role We have a rare opportunity for a Senior Content & Interpretation Editor to join our team.
This is an exciting new role within the organisation where you will support the strategic delivery of our priorities.
We are looking for a passionate editor to develop our online and in-gallery interpretation and support the implementation of our interpretation framework.
You must already have substantial experience in developing both text-based and digital interpretation.
You will have excellent written and verbal communication skills with a sharp eye for detail and linguistic nuance.
You will be an integral part of our cross-department editorial panel, working across different departments as well as working autonomously.
While this role's focus is editing text-based content for high-profile exhibitions and displays, it will also provide support for video and audio scripts.
You will coordinate the editorial pool, steer the implementation of our new interpretation framework, accessibility guidelines, and support the delivery of training across the organisation.
You'll be confident managing relationships with a range of key stakeholders including internal colleagues and partner organisations.
About our content and interpretation Our interpretation framework outlines our approaches to and the underlying principles of our interpretation.
The framework emphasises our tone of voice and our priority audiences to support those creating interpretation.
Our editorial panel develops training, accessibility guidelines, and coordinates a range of editorial outputs across the organisation.
We also have an editorial pool – made up of colleagues from across the organisation – who provide editing support across our content and interpretation.
The National Galleries of Scotland produce a range of interpretation including in-gallery texts, online captions, audio tours, videos, and podcasts among other outputs including BSL videos and audio described content.
Our interpretation framework is structured around visitor journeys, emphasising the audiences that we intend to grow and retain.
