    Project EditorThe British Library (London)
     - London, United KingdomPart Time
    Contract: 3 days a week. Providing project management support to a busy team, I oversaw publication of two exhibition titles ('Russian Revolution' and 'Maps and the 20th Century'), two anthologies and one season of the British Library Crime Classics. This began as a 3-month in-house contract, but was extended to a year.

    Special Projects ManagerImperial War Museums
     - London, United KingdomPart Time
    Contract: 2 days a week. Key projects included developing a new series of guidebooks across all five sites, and creating the exhibition catalogue for IWM North’s 'Wyndham Lewis: Life, Art, War' (in an environment unused to arts publishing, I commissioned authors, negotiated image fees, and managed the edit, design and production). I oversaw the editorial elements of a new partnership with Penguin Random House Children’s, and I was Editor of IWM Duxford’s airshow programmes, creating engaging content and managing design + production.
