About the Role

As a Heritage Assistant, you'll join our friendly team of archivists, librarian, conservator and assistants to bring Surrey’s fascinating documentary history to life. You will work with us to make the past accessible and enrich the lives of our community by sharing Surrey’s heritage in an engaging and meaningful way.

You’ll be at the heart of our welcoming frontline service, ensuring every visitor receives a warm and inclusive experience, fully aligned with SCC’s customer care values.

Through regular duty in our public searchroom, including occasional Saturdays, you’ll guide and support visitors as they explore our collections, ensuring the security and safe handling of our unique materials. You’ll play a pivotal role in delivering outstanding service, responding to enquiries, preparing helpful finding aids and taking part in outreach activities such as building tours and engaging talks. This is a rewarding opportunity to connect with people, promote local history and develop your skills in a lively and supportive setting.

A Vocational Qualification Level 2 or equivalent in the relevant field, or comparable experience of working with archives and local studies materials

A belief in the importance of local history to the promotion of community spirit and wellbeing.

To apply, alongside your CV, you will be asked to answer the following questions:

Please describe your experience of working in an archive and local studies environment.
What do you think are the important factors in ensuring good customer care, and can you give an example of when you have delivered excellent customer service?
What do you think are the main challenges of supervising the searchroom, and how would you handle a typically busy day of welcoming new visitors, answering questions about historical sources and invigilating the use of documents by the public?
What is your experience of using collections to engage, enthuse and widen audiences? Tell us about events you have helped to run and presentations you have given.
Tell us about a page on our Exploring Surrey’s Past website you find particularly fascinating. Why does it resonate with you and what other topics about Surrey’s past would you like to contribute to this site?
