University of St Andrews - Department of Special Collections
Project Manager (fixed term for 33 months)
£29,853 - £35,646 per annum
The main Library building of the University of St Andrews will begin a
major refurbishment programme in June 2011, which necessitates the
complete relocation to temporary accommodation of the Special
Collections Department and its extensive collections of rare and early
printed books, manuscripts, archives and photographs. A Project Manager
is sought to effect this move by 1 June 2011, and the return of the
collections to the Main Library building on completion of the
refurbishment in late 2012, whilst ensuring the safety and security of
the collections at all times. Working closely with the senior staff of
the Department, the Project Manager will report to the Head of Special
Collections, and will be responsible for managing a team dedicated to
the project. You will be a dynamic and focussed individual, with
experience of project management within the cultural heritage sector,
able to work with initiative and self-reliance as part of a close-knit
team. You should be able to demonstrate ability to meet tight deadlines
under pressure whilst remaining flexible in meeting objectives. You will
have a good eye for detail, and a high degree of personal organisation.
Excellent communication, management and leadership skills are essential.
Understanding and knowledge of the nature and purpose of historic
research collections is crucial.
Closing date: 13 August 2010
