Do you enjoy uncovering history and connecting with the past? Researching gives you up-close access to objects and stories from our collections, making them relevant and inspiring to our visitors today.
Your research will not only feed into our specialist exhibitions, but will help us understand our own history as we grow as an organisation.
What’s involved?
There are lot of different roles in our research team. You may enjoy researching the histories of specific individuals and their lives within the institutions or a broader themes for exhibition topics. You may also be asked to use your research to help create scripts and resource pacts for the learning team.
If you have a flare for technology, you could get involved with our efforts to digitise our collections, making them more accessible for others.
Is this role for me?
We are looking for detail driven individuals. You should be able to work independently but enjoy feeding knowledge back into a team.
You don’t need previous researching experience but a keen interest in history and heritage is essential and you should be willing to learn new skills.
