Please see below a vacancy which might be of interest to archive and library colleagues. Research Data and Preservation Manager https://jobs.surrey.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx?ref=055915-R-R Full time permanent Grade 4 Closing date 15th November Do you want to work at the University of the Year and a Top 5 UK University? Are you interested in working with researchers and being part of the team that helps resolve one of their biggest challenges? If you answered yes to these questions, this may be the job for you. The University of Surrey is looking for someone to join the Library and Learning Services' "Open Research" group to take the lead in establishing, and then supporting, the University's 'research data management and preservation service'. In a context in which open access to research data is being championed by government and research funders, this important role will offer consultation and technical support to researchers in the planning, management, publishing and preserving of their datasets. Working alongside professional colleagues in an established library team dedicated to supporting the scholarly communication activity of the University, you will build on the work already undertaken, to develop and grow a researcher-friendly advocacy and support service. In this dynamic and solution-focussed environment, you should be able to work flexibly and in a self-directed manner. Juggling multiple activities and being able to meet deadlines, whilst remaining responsive to researchers, will be key qualities for the role. Excellent communication skills are equally essential. It is an exciting role and one that would see you get into the growing area of information management in Higher Education.
