Curator: History of Cartography



Curator: History of Cartography

Starting salary: £21,000-£25,000 (within the salary band £21,000-33,500)

The National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, UK, has world-famous collections of
charts, atlases, maps and globes. We are seeking a well-qualified,
enthusiastic professional from a relevant discipline who will assume
responsibility for the intellectual management and interpretation of these
collections.  The person appointed will help to implement the Museum's
policy to broaden its academic base and improve access to its collections
through digital technology.  S/he will lead in the interpretation of the
collections through the Museum's research, publication and display
programmes.

While a research interest in the history of cartography is highly desirable,
we expect that specific knowledge of the collections will be acquired in
post. The Museum invites applications from experienced historians, map
curators, geographers and others from related disciplines who feel that they
have the necessary expertise and commitment to take on this challenging and
responsible position.  It is envisaged that the person appointed will have a
postgraduate qualification, ideally a record of publication and some
experience of teaching. Experience of museum work would be an advantage.

Please send a letter and CV to Personnel Services, National Maritime Museum,
Park Row, Greenwich, London SE10 9NF.

Closing date for the receipt of applications: 3 April 2000.
