Job Requirements
Our Town Hall Quarter programme aims to revitalise the Museum of Watford as part of a wider flagship scheme to regenerate Watford town centre. But this project is about much more than physical regeneration: we aim to transform our Town Hall into the beating heart of our community, with a modern museum and community spaces at its core. Our bold, ambitious plan creates a cultural space to tell our stories, connect our communities and inspire our journeys ahead. Exhibits will combine treasures dating back to the Bronze Age, with stories of the Windrush Generation and present-day icons. It's about creating a space not just for storytelling, but one that sparks conversation and connection, with additional spaces for work and leisure. With the Museum of Watford in its new home, we're reimagining what regeneration can really mean for communities, to breathe renewed energy and a sense of pride and purpose into the heart of our town, for everyone.
