Salary: £26,820 per annum pro rata

The British Museum is looking for a Curator with interests in the
archaeology, art and material culture of Late Antiquity in the Mediterranean
and the Middle East to play a key role in a five year research programme
funded by the Leverhulme Trust. Empires of Faith is a unique research
programme bringing together the British Museum with the University of Oxford
to understand the creation of religious iconographies and their
relationships with state formation from the Mediterranean World to South
Asia and the Borders of China, c. 200-800 AD.

The main purposes of this role are to (1) manage and administer aspects of
the programme such as budgets, workshops, meetings and work schedules; and
(2) to research aspects of the Late Antiquity collections and their
contexts. The successful candidate will be responsible for the development
and delivery of web content, public programming and potentially displays.
The role will also involve undertaking collections based documentation in
order to improve the documentation for relevant artefact and pictorial
collections. You will work closely with the project leader, Jas’ Elsner and
curators at the Museum. You will be based at the British Museum, but will
have to travel to Oxford for team meetings in term times.

Required Skills: You will be educated to degree level or equivalent in a
subject relevant to the role, for example Archaeology or Art History, with
proven curatorial and research experience. You will have experience of
working with and researching, or demonstrable knowledge of material culture
and art works. Excellent teamwork and communication skills are essential for
this role, as well as some experience of project management. Experience of
working on an exhibition and demonstrable knowledge of Late Antique material
and visual culture is desirable but not essential.   

Application Instructions: Interviews are likely to take place on 24 October
2012.
