Job description
The Collections Management and Care team could be described as ‘people services’ for collections. They manage acquisitions, disposals, borrowing and lending and coordinate legal ownership and provenance research (due diligence). They also support lender negotiations, arrange insurance, transport and maintain documentation.
The Assistant Registrar will provide support for our programme of collection and loan reviews, and we are looking for individuals with experience of undertaking due diligence, managing disposals and loans in.
The roles are offered on a 2-year fixed term contract basis.
What it's like to work here:We’re bigger than you think, we’re more complicated than we appear and we’re larger scale than you’d imagine. We’ve got passionate people in all our teams, and we’ve got so much more we want to achieve. We’re for everyone, for ever and we really mean that.
Your contractual location will be our head office in Swindon, however there will be an opportunity to explore and agree hybrid working arrangements which strike the right balance for you and the Trust. The role will involve travel to our head office to meet with stakeholders and to carry out work.
What you'll be doing:You’ll be a key member of the central Collections Management Team providing support to the Collections and Loans Review team to deliver packages of work to support disposals and loan returns. You’ll help to keep our collections database accurately and efficiently up to date. This may include a range of tasks but will include due diligence research, creating and amending records, supporting colleagues to undertake collection management tasks in line with our procedures and guidance.
You’ll also support the team with key administrative tasks, such as managing inboxes, responding to emails, taking meeting minutes and writing reports.
