Collections Assistant - Bury St Edmunds

Summary

We protect everything from bats to buildings to beaches – and we want to share them with everyone too. But how do we care for our special places, while helping everyone to enjoy them and their fascinating stories? It’s no small task. In fact, it’s a big team effort and it’s why our Collections Assistant  are so important.

For this role, you’ll need to complete our online assessment instead of using a C.V. or online application form. This will help us understand more about your strengths and give you more information on the role.

What it's like to work here

Reporting to the Senior Collections and House Officer, you'll be working alongside three other Collections Assistants as part of a House Team of nine. Ickworth is a Georgian mansion housing a vast collection, including nationally important paintings and silver, as well as significant ceramics, books, and furniture. You'll be supported in this by a team of Collections Volunteers whom you will supervise. 

Sharing our conservation message with visitors is a big part of the role and so you'll often be in a public facing position, engaging as you work or being part of our conservation tours. 

There will be on the job training as well as online training for collections management. Wherever possible we will help to develop skills and learning through opportunities such as assisting conservators working on site, shadowing other members of the team, being involved in elements of project work across property. Click here for more information about this location

What you'll be doing

As a Collections Assistant, you’ll be working with a great housekeeping team in an incredible place, helping with the day-to-day cleaning and care of the collections. No detail will go unnoticed, and you’ll keep a keen eye on everything from the environmental conditions in a room, to signs of wear and tear. You’ll keep accurate records too. As well as conservation cleaning, you'll take part in project work including environmental conservation, book cleaning, caring for objects in store, inventory marking, and other cataloguing work.

In this visitor facing role, we’d love you to talk to visitors about the work you’re doing, and the collections we have. You'll also be part of the wider team of employees and volunteers, helping to cover where necessary.

You can view the full role profile for this role in the document attached. You don't need to have all of the knowledge, skills and experience listed in the role profile; this is just to provide a full picture of what’s possible in this role.

Who we're looking for

We'd love to hear from you if you're;

  • a team player, but can also work on your own initiative
  • well organised and adaptable?  
  • customer focused with a positive attitude?  
  • willing to learn new skills?  
  • someone with good manual dexterity and hand-to-eye skills and ability to work from ladders and tower scaffold 

    The package

    The National Trust has the motto ‘For everyone, for ever’ at its heart. We’re working hard to create an inclusive culture, where everyone feels they belong. It’s important that our people reflect and represent the diversity of the communities and audiences we serve. We welcome and value difference, so when we say we’re for everyone, we want everyone to be welcome in our teams too.
