University of the Arts London (UAL) has an opportunity for an Assistant Archivist to arrange, catalogue and promote the archive of Wimbledon College of Arts. This will include preparing a selection of items from the Archive for digitisation, which will be shared via our digital collections portal.
UAL is a vibrant world centre for innovation, drawing together six Colleges with international reputations in art, design, fashion, communication and performing arts.
Significant in the development of art and design education during the 20th Century, Wimbledon College of Arts taught a range of subjects including sculpture and fine art, as well as performance and costume making.
You will contribute to a programme to catalogue UAL’s archives, museum and special collections, to make them discoverable and to support teaching, learning and research, at UAL and beyond.
You will have a postgraduate qualification in Archives and Records management, or equivalent experience. Experience of preparing archival material for digitisation is desirable.
