Someone who thrives on structure thinks critically and is excited to dig in and contribute to high‑profile projects across a wide range of industries. You’ll join a passionate team redefining how history is preserved, accessed, and shared—through cataloging, preservation, digital platforms, and more.

What You’ll Do

• As an Archivist, you’ll work hands‑on with legacy collections of all sizes. You’ll collaborate with clients and team members to process, preserve, and unlock the value of historical assets through:

• Learning client histories and championing archival recommendations in a consultative role
• You’ll balance speed and accuracy while navigating multiple projects, clients, and deadlines with professionalism and poise.

What You Bring

You're detail‑driven and deadline‑ready. You thrive in a team environment but are equally comfortable working independently. You're naturally curious, highly organized, and passionate about preserving history in ways that are both meaningful and modern.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of archival processing experience
• MLIS with Cataloging and/or Archives Specialization
• Certified Archivist (CA) designation preferred.
