Archive Volunteer
Overview
Responsible to: Heritage Engagement Officer
Key Relationships: Heritage Archives Officer, Participate and Marketing teams
About the role
Join our heritage team and help preserve the rich history of the Citizens Theatre. As an Archive Volunteer, you’ll work closely with our Heritage Archives and Engagement Officers to research and catalogue collection materials, rehouse items for long-term preservation and support enquiries about past performances.
This volunteer role would suit those who have an interest in historical research, information retrieval and dissemination and those who want to support the work of the heritage team at the theatre. It would be particularly suited to someone who is on the pathway to becoming an archivist and wants to put the theory they are learning into practice. Or someone who has previous experience working with archival material and would like to refresh their skills and/or gain experience working with a different type of collection.
We welcome applications from anyone with a passion for organising and making materials accessible. All that you need is an eye for detail, a methodical approach and some experience of Excel.
Some lifting and use of protective clothing may be required — all equipment will be provided.
