Hull, Kingston upon Hull, United Kingdom University of Hull Full time

The Wilberforce Institute for the Study of Slavery and Emancipation (WISE), University of Hull was founded in 2006 and is a world-leading research Centre focused on the study of historical slavery and modern slavery. It is one of the few institutes in the UK actively dedicated to the study of slavery and its legacies and strives to engage with descendant communities, University, national and international efforts to understand slavery in both historical and present-day contexts. A detailed overview of the Institute and its projects can be found on Wilberforce Institute home | University of Hull.

About the Role

Last year the Scott Trust, owners of the Guardian, published research conducted by WISE into its formation in Manchester in 1821. The research uncovered that the Manchester Guardians founders were connected to transatlantic slavery. WISE has a continuing partnership with the Guardian to conduct further research on the newspapers links with historical slavery and to provide a deeper understanding of the enslaved people linked to its founders. This forms part of the Scott Trusts 10-year Legacies of Enslavementproject. Aligned with this research remit, we are recruiting for the post of Research Assistant (RA) to conduct research on Jamaica and its links with the Manchester Guardian. The RA will assist two of our Workstreams focused on Jamaica and join a team of interdisciplinary researchers investigating the Guardians links with slavery in the regions of Brazil, the Sea Islands of the United States, the UK and the Caribbean.

This role will be part-time at .4 FTE/2 days per week and is expected to run for three months from 15th May to 15th August 2024. Further details on this role can be found in the Job Description.

About you

As this role entails archival work in Jamaica we actively encourage applications from those based in the Caribbean. We welcome applications from historians or interdisciplinary researchers with experience in working with archives related to slavery in Jamaica and digitised 19th Century Caribbean Newspapers. The ideal candidate will hold a Postgraduate degree in the field of Humanities and/or Social Sciences. Candidates with an Undergraduate degree accompanied by relevant research experience will also be considered for the role.
