Digitiser
About the Role
The Oxford University Museum of Natural History and Oxford University Herbaria are working together as part of the Central England Digitisation Co-Hub, a major collaborative initiative that is transforming access to natural history collections across the UK. This exciting programme will digitise nationally significant specimens, making them accessible to researchers and the public worldwide.
You will join a small Digitisation Team, primarily based at the Museum of Natural History, where you will play a key role in preparing, handling and digitising important zoological and botanical collections. Working with delicate and irreplaceable specimens, you will capture high-quality images and metadata using established digitisation workflows, ensuring accuracy while maintaining the highest standards of collections care.
This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to a nationally significant project that will improve access to biodiversity collections for research, education and conservation.
This is a full-time, fixed-term post for 18 months.
