The Hockey Museum, Woking, Surrey.
Collections Management Officer
Average 3 days a week - flexible
Expected remuneration: c. £20k pro rata
Fixed term 1 year, with potential to extend. Freelancers welcome to apply.
The Hockey Museum is a relatively new Museum having opened in late 2011. It achieved charitable status later that year and progress has been rapid as the wealth of new collections, enquiries and profile continues to rise. The Museum has moved to new premises in Woking Town Centre and has submitted an application for Museum Accreditation. We are now undertaking a comprehensive collections care and cataloguing project and managing the volunteers to ensure that all the existing and new collections are correctly accessioned and then archived.
We are looking for an enthusiastic Collections Management Officer with proven collections management skills, a meticulous attention to detail and outstanding organisational skills to oversee the maintenance and delivery of collection management procedures to the standards appropriate for an accredited museum. This will extend to overseeing the digitisation of the Museum’s extensive collections across all media platforms.
To apply please email a covering letter and a CV to Evelyn Somerville, THM HR manager, via our contact form.
Closing date for applications: 31 December 2016. Interviews will likely be conducted in the new year.
