About the record-keeping careers hub

 

The Recordkeeping careers hub is a project by the UK National Archives and the Archives and Records Association UK & Ireland.

 

The aim of the hub is to improving diversity in the recordkeeping sector and make recordkeeping careers more accessible to a wider range of people by:

 

  • Providing information in a user focussed and accessible way
  • Giving clear information on what types of jobs are available and what routes there are into the profession
  • Providing an easy to find, easy to use free job listing service – currently many record-keeping jobs are only posted on a member only Listserve
  • Providing information to employers and would be employers so that salaries offered are in line with ARA guidelines and to promote inclusive recruitment practices and to help first time hirers of record-keepers to get the right people for the job.
  • Signposting to other resources and information

 

This site was launched in Autumn 2025 and is currently still in a Beta testing phase. We would like to encourage users of the site go give us feedback on their experience in order to help us improve and develop the site in the future.

 

You can provide feedback by emailing deborah.mason@archives.org.uk
