Reading Museum is looking for a part-time Collections Assistant to support the work of the Collections team. The Collections Assistant will have the opportunity to develop their experience in museum documentation and collection management, working with a variety of collections but especially archaeological archives.

About the role:
Reading Museum has around half a million objects including fine art, local history, natural history and archaeology, sharing its unique collections with a wide range of audiences.

As a Collections Assistant you will work as part of the Museum collections team, updating object records with accurate information and research, helping maintain loan records on the database and marking objects with their numbers according to agreed procedures.

They will assist with answering enquiries, research, photography and scanning of collections, recording archaeological archives, basic collection care tasks such as packing and environmental monitoring, and the safe movement of objects including location control.

The role will also offer opportunities to get involved with the wider work of the Collections and Learning team including exhibition preparation, supporting volunteers and visiting researchers, and contributing to online publications such as museum blogs and social media content.

This is a part time role, and we expect that you will normally work three days a week between Monday and Friday.

You’ll be part of a team that relies on each individual to play their part to the best of their ability. As well as the colleagues that you work closely with every day, you’ll also be part of Team Reading, playing your personal part in making Reading a successful and vibrant place.

Our vision is to ensure that Reading realises its potential as a great place to live, work and play, and that everyone shares the benefits of this success. Our values and behaviours guide how we will achieve this:
Work Together as one team - work collaboratively, with each other and with our partners, and demonstrate the Team Reading values in everything we do
Drive Efficiency - show initiative, be adaptable to change and put forward ideas to help improve delivery and efficiency. Take responsibility for our own learning and development and for reaching our potential.
