Hello List

I apologise for anyone who sees this more than once, as I'm posting it to a couple of lists.

Please will members bring this to the attention of anyone they know who wants to combine records management experience in a records assistant role with working in a Museum, with museum collections.

The role is a combination of corporate records management and object collections management, but we are hoping to balance the skill set across the team by recruiting someone with records management experience.

Job Title: Corporate and Collections Information Officer
Salary: £16,969
Location: Museum of Science and Industry, Manchester
Job Type: Full Time
Hours: 36.25 per week
Deadline for applications: 19/10/2014 23:59

Located on the historic site of the world’s oldest surviving passenger railway station, housed in five listed buildings – the Museum of Science & Industry, Manchester tells the story of the city’s scientific and industrial past, present and future. The Museum’s site has 15 permanent galleries, an ever-changing range of special exhibitions, and an exciting calendar of events that combine to attract up to 800,000 visitors each year. Our outstanding collection tells the story of Manchester as the place where science and industry met and the modern world began, and the impact that Manchester science and technology continues to have on our lives.

Based in the Archives & Information team, you will play a key role in ensuring compliance with regulatory, legal and information rights legislation, deal with a range of enquiries made remotely and through the Collections Centre, and provide advice to researchers. As Corporate and Collections Information Officer, you will help to create, maintain and enhance collections records, as well as process loans and ensure information about hazardous materials and object movements are properly recorded.  

We are looking for an individual who has experience in a records management, collections registration, documentation or inventory role, with demonstrable knowledge of relevant standards, legislation and best practice. Self-motivated and highly organised, you will be methodical, and able to work under pressure while maintaining thorough attention to detail. You will be an excellent team player and communicator, keen to improve processes and appreciative of the importance, impact and sensitivity of information.
