Senior Archaeological Officer
Role Responsibility
A dynamic, well-motivated individual is sought to join the Heritage Conservation group to help protect and manage the rich and varied historic environment of Kent. Your primary responsibility will be to work as part of a busy team providing archaeological planning advice to the County Council, District Planning Authorities, Medway Council, and other agencies and developers. This will involve preparing responses to planning applications, writing specifications, and monitoring fieldwork and post-excavation programmes. The post is for one year to provide additional capacity needed because the team is now advising Canterbury City Council but, subject to funding, could be extended.
You will have a degree or equivalent in archaeology or a related subject, a good working knowledge of British archaeology including good fieldwork experience, good analytical and communication skills, excellent team-working skills and the ability to work under pressure to tight deadlines.
