We call this SMART working - giving you the freedom to shape your working pattern around your life, whilst still delivering great outcomes. Speak with the hiring manager about the range of flexible working options available for this role.

About the Role

We currently have an exciting internship within Trafford’s Local Studies & Archives team. For those who want to work with interesting and varied collections, who have an interest in gaining hands on experience in the archive sector, this is the perfect opportunity for you. Whether you’re a recent graduate, current student or someone considering a career in the sector, this internship offers candidates an opening to gain invaluable career experience.

Locating, retrieving and handling records and artefacts, you will help create displays within the centre in addition to preparing items for researchers. Working with collections such as Trafford’s Arts & Heritage collection and Historic Building Plans collection (c.1850-1989), you will help digitize and catalogue key items.

About You

Be capable of learning and following procedures whilst displaying a high attention to detail. You will be able to demonstrate sound communication (verbal and written) and interpersonal skills, with the ability to communicate key information clearly to customers and colleagues. You will need to show a genuine interest in archival practice, procedures, and policies in addition an enthusiasm and receptiveness to learn new skills and knowledge.

Trafford Local Studies & Archives preserves, manages, and provides access to archive records which relate to the former towns and rural areas which, since 1974, make up the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford. Trafford’s collections include archival records created by organisations or institutions, business records, and personal papers. We also hold an art and heritage collection that is comprised of artefacts and works of art with links to the local area. The Trafford Local Studies centre (TLSC) is located on the ground floor of Waterside House, in Sale (M33 7ZF). Our facilities include a Reading Room for the purposes of archives research and study, along with a bank of public computers and both microfilm and microfiche readers. Our library stock specialises in local and regional history research, and is comprised of reference collections, lending stock, periodicals, and journals. We also hold an ever-increasing range of genealogical material to aid family history research, available both in print and online.

Our core office hours are 8.45am til 5.00pm, with staff operating on a 2 week rota system. This post is predominately office based with occasional offsite working for events.
