    Brief

    The British Museum is seeking a Planning Communications Consultant to provide specialist expertise for the Western Range redevelopment programme. This major project involves the renovation and reimagining of approximately 15,000 square metres across 10 interconnected historic buildings, representing nearly 15% of the Museum's Bloomsbury site. The Western Range currently houses the Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece (including the Parthenon Sculptures), Rome, and Ancient Assyria and Middle East collections, along with significant back-of-house storage. The consultant will develop and deliver coordinated communications services related to Town and Country Planning matters throughout all project phases: pre-application consultation, planning submission, determination, and post-determination activities. Key challenges include working within a Grade I listed heritage setting, managing constrained site conditions, coordinating complex logistics, maintaining ongoing Museum operations with six million annual visitors, and addressing multiple stakeholder requirements. The project is being delivered by a multi-disciplinary design team led by Lina Ghotmeh Architecture and is currently at RIBA Stage 2. Interested suppliers must sign a non-negotiable confidentiality agreement before accessing the full tender documents. Contact procurement@britishmuseum.org to request the confidentiality agreement.
