Applications are invited for the following Digital Archives Assistant (Graduate Trainee) vacancy:

Office: Parliamentary Archives
Payband/Salary: HL4 (£22,500)
Contract Type: Fixed Term

The deadline for applicants is the 10th June.

Main Objective:

Based in the Preservation & Access Team and reporting to the Digital Archivist, this post is an opportunity for a self-motivated graduate to gain work experience maintaining and developing our archives services in a modern archive incorporating both digital and paper records, prior to taking up a place on a post-graduate Information Management course. The post holder would be involved in a wide range of practical work and be provided with excellent developmental opportunities across the Parliamentary Archives.

The role is offered as a training post and will be on a fixed-term basis running from 1 September 2018 until 31 August 2019, with the intention that this will provide experience for a person wishing to undertake a post-graduate qualification in Information Management starting in September 2019.  Candidates will be expected to start the application process during the training period.

The role is intended for someone who has no other means of gaining the necessary experience in order to qualify for entry to such a course.  Priority will be given to applicants who have not previously held significant paid employment in archives, and who have no existing postgraduate archives training. The post is not designed for students already enrolled in full or part-time archives courses, including distance learning courses.
