The Parliamentary Archives collections constitutes 13km of physical records dating back to 1497, it is a shared service of both Houses of Parliament. It provides innovative and expert information management, preservation, access and outreach services enabling anyone in the world to use Parliament’s records.

Since 2014, Parliament has been considering options to improve the Archives’ accommodation, to support both Houses’ public engagement and heritage objectives, and to ensure the continued safety of the collections.

A Moves project will start up in April 2023 and run concurrently with PAM. This role will sit across both projects. In addition to this post, it is anticipated the Moves Project team will consist of Moves Supervisors (x2) and will also work with moves contractors. Both projects are led by the Senior Project Manager.
