The V&A is looking for a Conservation Scientist to join its vibrant Conservation team. As Conservation Scientist you will have the exciting opportunity to work in our newly-refurbished laboratory, where a AHRC £2.3 million grant has enabled the purchase and upgrade of a wide range of microscopes, spectrometers and X-radiography equipment. With experience in the analysis of materials from cultural heritage contexts, as Conservation Scientist you will undertake the analysis of organic, polymeric and modern materials as well as other traditional materials in museum objects, using FTIR, X-ray fluorescence, SEM-EDX, UV-vis-nIR, optical and digital microscopy, Raman microscopy and other appropriate techniques. You will undertake and support research enabling the delivery of the museum’s Public Programme and strategic objectives in care of collections and research. You will be active in publications, presentations, contribute to the V&A’s blog and public events.
