School of Science, Engineering & Environment
Full Time Permanent

£31,396 - £36,023

So, what will the role involve?

We are looking for an individual who is passionate, professional and dedicated to the delivery of heritage advice. We are seeking a well organised and enthusiastic team player to lead our Heritage Consultancy and Built Heritage team. 

Whilst the post is campus based at the University of Salford, further to an initial induction, we are happy to consider a flexible hybrid working pattern of 1-2 days in the office and the remainder working from home, or full time in the office, whichever suits best.

The role will primarily be focussed on client liaison, generating new workstreams and managing a fantastic established team of heritage professionals.

Possessing extensive experience in the production of Historic Environment Desk-based Assessments, Heritage Statements, Environmental Impact Assessments and a working knowledge of Settings Assessments and Built Heritage, you will be expected to lead a team in a busy and fast paced environment, providing heritage advice, consultancy and built heritage services to our clients. As such, you will be able to showcase your established experience of heritage consultancy delivery. 

As part of the Senior Management Group, you will assist in the development and implementation of Salford Archaeology’s business strategy, to continue to deliver high quality services for our clients, whilst also developing new income streams.

In addition to the above, an overarching key aspect of the role is to contribute to our thinking and be challenging on how Salford can transform the way it addresses equity disparities, embraces diversity and becomes more inclusive. At Salford Archaeology we take great pride in being a friendly, supportive and openminded team.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss the opportunity in more detail, please contact Adam Thompson, Director of Archaeology, at a.thompson@salford.ac.uk.

The School aims to transform the quality of life for society and the well-being of future generations through a better and more sustainable future, offering students programmes from Architecture to Zoology.

Industry collaboration is at the core of what we do. This is combined with a passion for research and finding solutions to real world problems and those that we may face in the future. Our work is truly interdisciplinary with a strong focus on developing our knowledge for our colleagues as well as students.

The University’s Campus Masterplan includes three new buildings for the SEE School and marks a real step change in our ability to deliver world leading research and innovation. The SEE School itself will have a brand-new dedicated building that will house many of our colleagues under one roof, a new ERDF funded Robotics Centre, as well as our ‘Energy House 2.0’ – an unrivalled environment to develop future energy saving products.
