We are a multi-disciplinary programme that includes retrieval, conservation, content specialists, curators and cataloguers, translation, rights clearance, imaging, and workflow staff.
The partnership is currently in its fourth phase. We will be delivering an additional 675,000 searchable and contextualised digital images, made freely available via the dedicated portal at www.qdl.qa and selected from the library’s archive collections, including the India Office Records and Private Papers, Sound, Maps and Arabic Manuscript collections.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the Programme’s cataloguing team. You will be responsible primarily for cataloguing material from the India Office Records and Private Papers (IOR&PP) relating to the history of the Gulf. There will also be opportunities to write blogs to contextualise the material and present it to new audiences, and to contribute to project outreach, including participating in occasional tours and show and tells.
You will have a postgraduate archive qualification or equivalent experience, substantial knowledge and experience of archival cataloguing and relevant standards, palaeography skills, the ability to work with accuracy and attention to detail, the ability to work to deadlines, teamwork and strong communication and IT skills.
This is a full-time, fixed-term contract post until the 31 October 2026, with the potential to be extended to late December 2026. Due to the nature of the role responsibilities, a large proportion of your time will be spent working on-site at St Pancras.
