Description


As a Cataloguing Archivist (Photography) at Foster + Partners, you will help preserve, organise, and enhance access to a unique photographic archive that documents the practice’s world-renowned work and history. Working within our Special Collections Archive, you’ll play a key role in cataloguing collections, supporting digitisation projects, and ensuring important photographic records are preserved for future generations. This is an opportunity to work with fascinating visual material while contributing to the stewardship of an internationally significant archive.


This role is ideal if you want to:


  • Work closely with historic and contemporary photographic collections.
  • Contribute to meaningful archive and digitisation projects.
  • Digitise photographic collections in line with practice policies, creating, preserving, and enhancing high-quality digital images using scanning and photographic equipment.
  • Develop your expertise in photographic cataloguing and collection management.
  • Support research and access to a globally recognised archive.

What you will bring to the team:


  • Experience handling archival photographic collections, or relevant experience within the cultural heritage sector, preferably in an archive, museum, or gallery setting.
  • Knowledge of archival cataloguing standards and collection management practices.
  • Ensure accurate and consistent cataloguing of Foster + Partners’ photographic collections in accordance with SPECTRUM cataloguing standards and controlled vocabularies for seamless integration into the archive’s Collection Management Database.
  • Experience digitising photographic materials and managing digital assets.
  • An understanding of photographic formats, processes, and preservation requirements.
  • Strong organisational skills with excellent attention to detail.
  • Confidence using collection databases and relevant software, including MS Excel, Adobe Photoshop, Bridge, and Lightroom.

What we offer:


We offer a benefits package designed to help you thrive professionally and personally. This includes: private medical insurance for you and your family; life assurance; personal travel insurance; access to a range of wellbeing support, comprising virtual GP services, mental health support and lifestyle coaching; as well as discount programmes for various retailers. On our London campus, we have subsidised catering facilities and host regular social events, and sports activities, for everyone to enjoy.

To support you in building a meaningful career, the practice offers opportunities to develop both your technical and non-technical skills through continuous learning, professional development support, and knowledge sharing and insights from experienced colleagues.
