Job opportunity at The National Archives
Transfer Adviser x 2
The Downing Street Cat. Mrs Thatcher's Kitchen. The Poll Tax Riots. The Fall of the Berlin Wall. These are just some of the subjects covered in the 11 million items held by The National Archives. With a collection like this - the largest in the world - we want to make sure that it continues to grow, making government records from the recent past available and accessible to our diverse audience. As one of our Transfer Advisers, you'll enable organisations like the Cabinet Office, Foreign and Commonwealth Office and Her Majesty's Treasury to transfer their records to The National Archives in line with their responsibilities under the Public Records Act and ensure that they are findable and accessible through our online catalogue, Discovery, and that the physical records themselves are preserved in perpetuity. All in an organisation that offers great support and exceptional benefits.
About the role
The National Archives (TNA) offers expert advice and services to Government departments on managing and preserving information and on the timely transfer of records to TNA under the Public Records Act 1958 (PRA). Many departments are holding large quantities of records which need to be transferred to TNA in order to achieve or maintain compliance with the PRA. This, combined with the implementation of the transition to the 20 Year transfer rule introduced under the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010, has led to a significant increase in the quantity of records that government departments are required to transfer to TNA.
Transfer Advisers are responsible for the end-to-end process of transferring records from departments and/or their third party suppliers to TNA and are central to the delivery of expert advice and guidance covering record transfer and related standards; ensuring that departments understand and implement required procedures for transferring records; and that the records they send to TNA are properly catalogued and prepared for transfer.
About you
We are looking for individuals who are highly committed to delivering a professional service within the public sector. This work requires exceptional attention to detail and a high degree of interpersonal in working with departmental contacts. This ensures that the integrity of records are maintained and managed during the transfer process and that statutory transfer responsibilities are met in accordance with the PRA and transition to the 20 Year rule.
Join us here in beautiful Kew, just 10 minutes' walk from the Overground and Underground stations, and you can expect an excellent range of benefits. They include a pension, flexible working, as well as discounts with local businesses (e.g. beauty salons and bars). We also offer wellbeing resources (e.g. on-site therapists) and have an on-site gym, restaurant, shop and staff bar.
Closing date: 18th November at Midnight
Salary: £21,900
