Job Summary

Leads delivery of the Fashion Museum Bath's Milsom Quarter Public Realm, managing programme, budgets, consultants and contractors, overseeing design and consents, and working with stakeholders to deliver high‑quality, inclusive public realm outcomes.

Job Description

At Bath & North East Somerset Council we have one overriding purpose - to improve people's lives.

Temporary - Maternity Cover (June 2026 - July 2027)

We are seeking an experienced and strategic Principal Project Manager to lead delivery of the Milsom Quarter Public Realm strand of the Fashion Museum Bath programme during a maternity leave period.

This is a rare opportunity to play a pivotal role in a high profile heritage led cultural infrastructure programme within a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This role sits within the Fashion Museum Bath capital programme, supporting one of its most significant and interdependent delivery strands: the Milsom Quarter Public Realm (MQPR) project. The MQPR works hand in hand with the relocation and development of the new Fashion Museum, forming a single integrated transformation programme for this part of Bath.

The Fashion Museum Bath Programme
Fashion Museum Bath holds one of the world's leading collections of fashion, spanning 400 years of creativity. We are delivering an ambitious capital project to open a new Fashion Museum in 2030. This major cultural investment will transform access to the Collection through new exhibitions, displays, learning spaces and an improved visitor experience.

The Milsom Quarter Public Realm (MQPR) Strand
The MQPR is a flagship regeneration initiative that forms a key enabling component of the Fashion Museum redevelopment. The project is reshaping public spaces (including delivering a major new square at the museum's entrance) and is essential to the museum's successful opening, visitor access and long term operation.

MQPR and FMB are being delivered together as a single, coordinated cultural and placemaking programme, ensuring public realm, access, movement and cultural infrastructure develop in harmony.
