Assistant Paper Conservator: Photographic Materials
Bristol's Museums, Galleries and Archives

We seek an organised, motivated conservator with creative and
flexible problem solving skills to carry out identification,

constructive relationships with them all.  You must also welcome the
responsibility of managing your own time and devising your own
solutions to conservation problems.

You will have a degree from a recognised conservation training
programme, or similar experience, and ideally two to three years
post training experience. Experience within a museum work
environment will be seen as an advantage.

As Assistant Conservator you will be part of a growing and lively
