Hi Ashley, 

I'm a Collections Manager who's refered to as Curator of Collections by my employer (a healthcare system). When my positon was created, their logic for my title was that "Collections Manager" sounded like I was going to be managing the collection of past due payments. Semantics are such fun - best of luck to you.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Job Title Inquiry

Good Afternoon,

Recently, we were informed that our job title would be changing from Curator of Collections to something that is better suited to what we actually do.  Our job is actually Collections Manager, but because we work for the City, we cannot be called a Manager.  What I would like to know is are there any other Collections Managers out there that aren't called Collections Managers?  If so, what is your title?

Thank you in advance,

Ashley
