Crich Tramway Village ‘Foundations First’ External Consultancies

The Tramway Museum Society wishes to appoint appropriately experienced external consultants for these three briefs;

1. Develop with us robust, meaningful and sustainable data capture and analysis of our audiences and potential audiences. Their work will include carrying out face-to-face interviews on and off site, and assisting with focus groups. The detailed analysis and resulting final report will form part of our new Audience Development Plan (to update our existing Audience Engagement Plan 2022-25).

2. Develop with us content for a new Business Plan, with an emphasis on a Growth Strategy, and practical proposals focussing on three particular areas. We expect the Business plan consultant/s to analyse our existing Business Plan and performance, recommend and test with us new approaches, particularly focusing on;
i) digital customer engagement,
ii) retail / online retail advice, and
iii) succession planning for certain staff roles.

It may be that the three foci are delivered best by separate advisors, in which case the resources available would be divided equally.

3. To create a robust evaluation framework that we can use during this project and in follow-up projects. The framework will enable us to judge the success of workstreams and tasks during the 12 months, and capture their impact. The consultant will also work with us to produce an objective final evaluation report on the Foundations First project.

This is an exciting opportunity to work with the acclaimed Crich Tramway Village, home to the National Tramway Museum, as it works on strategic development plans for the attraction and museum.

This is part of the NLHF funded ‘Foundations First’ project, and we are seeking applicants who have the flexibility to commence work in November 2024, working with us through to December 2025.
