The Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent Archive Service is seeking an experienced and enthusiastic archive, book and paper conservator to work on the Minton Archive Conservation Project. The postholder will carry out work both at Staffordshire Record Office and Stoke on Trent City Archives.
The Minton Archive was saved for the nation in March 2015 by the Art Fund and presented to the City of Stoke-on-Trent to be cared for by the Stoke-on-Trent City Archives, part of the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Archive Service. The archive has been described by ceramic historian Paul Atterbury as “quite simply the greatest 19th century industrial archive in Britain”.
The items selected for conservation treatment are the earliest pattern books and one box of designs. The collection is already the subject of enquiries from collectors and historians from around the world. The box of design drawings contains some three hundred pieces from renowned artists.
You will have a relevant formal qualification and experience in the application of Book and Paper Conservation treatments. A methodical and organised approach will help you maintain concentration and consistency when working on split sites. A flexible approach will enable you to work well on your own and as part of an established team using your initiative and taking responsibility.
