As a research support administrator you will support an exciting archaeological project focused on the discovery of a late Iron Age chariot burial in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Funded by the AHRC it is a collaboration between the University of Manchester and Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales, led by Professor Melanie Giles (Project Lead: PL) and curator Adam Gwilt (Project Co-Lead, PcL). The project involves the analysis, conservation and interpretation of the artefacts from the discovery, the building and testing of replicas and a wide-ranging creative arts and events programme with schools, history groups and public heritage organisations, and a final exhibition at two venues in Wales. You will support both project leads and two postdoctoral scholars and assist the delivery of the project for 4 hours per week across 43 months. It is anticipated that these hours may be compressed together in busy periods of the project, with slack periods at other times, so flexibility is key.
What will you get in return:
- Fantastic market leading Pension scheme
- Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme
- Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays
- Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
- Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers
