About the Role
Historic Royal Palaces (HRP) is an independent charity dedicated to caring for six of the world's most remarkable palaces. We bring the stories of these palaces to life, making heritage accessible and relevant to all. HRP is committed to fostering a diverse workforce and making careers in the heritage sector more accessible to under-represented groups.

To support this mission, HRP offers two scholarships to UK-based students from minority or under-represented communities in the heritage sector. These scholarships cover fees for part-time study on the MA in Heritage Management, a course jointly delivered by HRP and Queen Mary University of London. The scholarships aim to help overcome barriers to entering the heritage workforce and promote inclusivity within the sector.

The course will run part-time over two years, starting in September 2026. HRP is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from candidates of all backgrounds. We are also committed to maintaining high standards of safeguarding to ensure a safe environment for all within our palaces.
