In this post you will deliver heritage science operations and research projects that support the Conservation, Collection Care and Collections Management team’s annual and longer-term programme of scientific investigations and research. This includes supporting the Heritage Science Manager on major research initiatives, collaborating with internal and external stakeholders, and aiding conservators and curators with science-based research queries. You will also be responsible for laboratory maintenance and operations to ensure a smooth running and supportive service. You will have undergone training in a scientific discipline, with a specialism in heritage science or a relevant subject. An awareness of the materials and analytical science needed for the study, care and display of historic objects is essential, as is laboratory work experience and familiarity with the operation of analytical instruments (e.g. SEM EDS, XRF, FTIR, HPLC, HSI). Strong practical computing experience is desirable. You will be an adaptable and creative problem-solver who can work independently. Enthusiastic and able to communicate effectively, you will have experience in the dissemination of information, both written and spoken to pro-actively explain and promote heritage science to generalist and specialist audiences.
