  Job Description
The National Gallery is seeking a Content and Engagement Specialist to drive collaboration and innovation in the Heritage Science Data Service (HSDS) project, a groundbreaking initiative to transform access to heritage science data across the UK’s GLAM sector.

Working with project partners, you’ll help develop a UK-wide data catalogue, test digital platforms, and create workflows to make heritage science data more accessible and reusable. You will lead engagement with GLAM institutions, design user scenarios, and organise workshops and surveys to promote FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data practices.

Please note: This is not a practical conservation role but focuses on managing, organising, and presenting heritage science data. It offers valuable experience for those in conservation, heritage science, or digital data management.

Join us in shaping the future of heritage science and digital collaboration!

This is a fixed term, maternity cover contract for up to 12 months. The role requires on-site working three days per week.
  Required Skills / Qualifications
We’re looking for someone with:

• Experience in digital content management, user engagement, or data coordination, ideally within the cultural heritage or conservation field.
• Strong organisational and communication skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across institutions.
• Familiarity with metadata standards, FAIR data principles, and digital platforms used in heritage science (e.g., ResearchSpace).
• A proactive and adaptable approach to problem-solving and stakeholder engagement.
