Not to be confused with Aunt Molly Jackson.

Molly Jackson was acting director of the National Museum of Science and Industry (NMSI) in England, from 6 April to 23 September 2009. From June 2004 she was the managing director of NMSI Trading Ltd. Prior to that (1993 to 2003) she had held a number of roles in Pearson plc, including Development Director of the Financial Times Group.

Jackson was the appointment panel's selection for Director on 7 April, but the appointment had not been confirmed by the time Jackson's contract was terminated following a disciplinary investigation.[1][2]

She was replaced as acting director by Andrew Scott, former director of NMSI's National Railway Museum.[3]
