The Freud Museum London has appointed a new director, Anna Jobson.
The new appointment is currently an independent strategist, with over twenty-five years’ experience of working in the arts, culture and education sectors.
Jobson has previously served as head of policy and planning at Tate, programme director at Arts Council England, and director of change at University of the Arts London.
Anna succeeds acting director Dan Feeney, who has led the museum since April 2025. Feeney will remain with the Museum as a ‘change consultant’ to support Jobson until the end of the year. Dr Guiseppe Albano MBE concluded his three year tenure leading the museum earlier this year.

Jobson said: “I can’t imagine a professional opportunity that better brings together my experience, skills and interests and I am looking forward to leading the Museum into its next chapter”.
Sue Prevezer KC, chair of the Freud Museum London said: “The Board of Trustees is delighted to welcome Anna as a new Director. She brings a wealth of experience from the cultural and heritage sector, passion for the Museum, and an evident energy to lead us in
becoming a truly 21st century museum ahead of our 40th Anniversary in 2026.
“Anna joins us at a pivotal time as we build on a critically acclaimed exhibition programme whilst also reaching record numbers of Further and Higher Education students, demonstrating the ongoing relevance of Freud’s work and the importance of the Freud Museum.”
