After successfully completing a 12-24 month development plan, you will be promoted to the senior position of Archival Storage Manager. The development plan includes comprehensive training and hands-on experience.

What We’re Looking For: As a custodian of over 1000 years of iconic national documents, we need someone who is highly motivated, can stay calm under pressure, and has a proven track record of meeting deadlines. You should be a team player with excellent interpersonal skills and a methodical approach.

Collaborative Environment: You will work collaboratively with other managers and both internal and external stakeholders in a bustling environment. Your mission will be to deliver data-driven storage solutions that support both day-to-day operations and large-scale document accessions to The National Archives.

Work Schedule: This is an onsite role with a standard working pattern of Monday to Friday, plus overtime every third Saturday. Every six weeks, you will be on a late rota, working from 10:50 am to 7 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
