We are looking for a professionally qualified Archivist with experience of leading or developing archive services, and a strong commitment to public engagement, inclusion, and collaboration.

The ideal candidate will bring vision, confidence, and creativity, with the ability to balance strategic leadership with operational delivery. You will be a strong advocate for archives, comfortable working across teams and with partners to unlock new stories, broaden access and increase the impact of our collections.

This is a varied and dynamic role, with responsibilities including:

Lead planning and delivery toward Archive Service Accreditation, ensuring policies, standards and frameworks are in place
Champion integration with the museum service, embedding archives in exhibitions, learning and public programming
Oversee collections management of the archive collection, including accessioning, cataloguing, preservation, and digital development
Develop partnerships, projects, and funding opportunities to grow the service and increase its reach and impact
Lead and support a small team, fostering a culture of learning, collaboration, and continuous improvement

We ask all candidates to complete assessments and application materials independently, without the use of AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT or similar), unless otherwise stated.
This ensures a fair and consistent assessment of individual skills, experience, and capabilities.

Closing date: 21 June 2026

Interview date: 8 July 2026
