Archivists (3 posts)
£23,749 - £29,728
Temporary for 2 years with a possible extension of up to 3 years.
Ref:JL1120TV
This is an opportunity to play a part in one of the major archive
developments of the next few years. We require 3 archivists to help us
prepare for moving Birmingham Archives and Heritage collections to a new
building as part of the £193m Library of Birmingham project. One of the
posts will be dedicated to managing a small team undertaking documentation
and surveying of the collections, whilst two posts will mainly cover
public service duties to release time for existing staff to work on the
project. You will be a qualified archivist or working towards
qualification in the near future and preferably will have worked with the
public and have cataloguing experience. Effective communication and
teamworking skills will, however, be more important than professional
experience.
Closing date: 25 July 2008. Informal enquiries to Siān Roberts, Head of
Collections Development 0121 303 4219 or Paul Hemmings, Senior Manager,
Archives and Heritage 0121 303 4399
