Marek Obdrzalek
Local time: 21:20
vedouci archivu
Explanation:
This is the person responsible for registering and archiving the exhibits. Similar job titles can be (depending on the size of the museum, or its internal structure): "reditel archivu", or "zastupce reditele pro archivaci".
See the following page on the organisational structure of the Slovak National Museum's archive (terminology in Slovak would be almost identical with the Czech one)

Explanation:
Mam pocit ze kurator zde bude vyhovovat lepe nez archivar
Tady je dobry popis toho, co chief registrar delahttps://www.dailyprincetonian.com/archives/2004/04/20/news/1...
McCormick helps organize the complex system that directs the flow of exhibits entering and leaving the museum. And, with seemingly endless enthusiasm for her work, she is up for each day's challenges.
"We are a cross between a librarian and an air traffic controller," she said, laughing.
Hlavni kurator ma pres 110 hitu na .cz strankach, hlavne muzea, coz je zdejsi pripad.

agree  lingua chick: Absolutely spot on! We do not have Chief Registrars in muzeums in the UK, the equivalent position would be a curator who is the custodian of the collection.
