**Archive Services Officer (Full time, permanent)**
The Kent Archives and Local History Service has a vacancy for an Archivist in its Archive Service Officer team. The role includes a wide range of professional duties, from dealing with depositors, accessioning and cataloguing, to answering detailed research enquiries about the collections and participating in our outreach programmes. The Archive Service Officers work closely with front-facing public service and reprographics staff, as part of a small, friendly and highly motivated team.
The post is based at the Kent History and Library Centre, which houses documents, manuscript and printed books, maps, photographs and drawings relating to 1300 years of Kent’s history. The collections include the Kent County Archive, the archives of Kent’s two Church of England dioceses, parish records, many borough and other local government collections, and extensive private/unofficial archives. Kent Archives and Local History Service is an Accredited Archives Service and is a Place of Deposit for public records.
The role requires a qualified archivist or someone with equivalent experience, with the ability to:
- catalogue to ISAD(G) standards using archival cataloguing software, specifically CALM
- excellent communication, interpersonal and presentational skills
- good competence in IT
- the ability to meet deadlines
If you love working with archives and people, get satisfaction from hitting deadlines, and share our vision of making archival collections as accessible and beneficial to as many people as possible, please get in touch.
Kent County Council is one of the country’s biggest local authorities and provides a comprehensive package of benefits and employee support.
This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.
