Stone Conservator Vacancies at Lincoln Cathedral (Two Full-time Posts)
Lincoln Cathedral is entering a new and exciting phase of conservation work
over the next 5 years and is looking to expand its Conservation Department. We
would welcome applications from suitably qualified and experienced stone
conservators to join our existing team, to undertake a range of roles including
sculpture cleaning, recording, report writing and repairs. This exceptional
opportunity will result in the successful candidates forming part of the team
delivering the conservation of Lincoln's West Front Heritage Lottery Fund
programme, which includes the internationally important Romanesque Frieze and
Gallery of Kings sculptures.
You will have meaningful and demonstrable practical experience in the
conservation of complex stone and sculpture projects, with a wide and in-depth
understanding of current stone conservation practices. You will have a proven
track record of delivering projects on time and on budget to the highest
professional standards. Experience of conservation recording and a proven
ability to write to a high standard will be necessary. A good working
understanding of current digital recording techniques/measured surveying and
manipulating image data would be advantageous, although further training is
possible for the right candidate.
Relevant qualifications or equivalent are required, alongside a good
understanding of current health and safety requirements. The ability to work
at height and on scaffolded sites is an essential requirement of both posts.
Although you will be part of a team, you will be expected to work flexibly on a
variety of projects as part of the Works Department programme, at times with
minimum supervision. We are looking for team members with excellent
communication skills, who are highly organised, enthusiastic and committed
individuals.
Four year fixed term contract.
Salary negotiable
