IHBC Director Sean O’Reilly said: ‘Our NewsBlog updates on career opportunities posted on the ‘IHBC Jobs etc.’ service demonstrate the huge variety of roles that employers are looking to us to help fill.’
… huge variety of roles that employers are looking to us to help fill…
‘Any NewsBlog Jobs etc. update ranges widely across sectors, skills, employers, locations and roles, but all have one special consideration in common: they target IHBC members, their skills and our networks to secure the right profile they need, of skills, knowledge and experience in conservation and related discipline and roles.’
Recent posts show a strong interest in the more practical roles in building conservation, including the National Trust’s ‘Let Estate Building Surveyor’; Historic England’s ‘Retrofit Architect/Surveyor – Climate Change Adaptation’ – with a call for a Listing Adviser there too – and The Landmark Trust’s search for a ‘Building Maintenance Co-ordinator’. Especially notable in this round too is the post of Project Surveyor at Eton College.
All show well how a strategic posting of roles can add further value to the already cost-effective service offered by the IHBC’s Jobs etc service’, as clearly no other career planning platform offers such a diverse but relevant options for conservation practitioners and specialists seeking career change and progress.’
‘All these reflect the many pressures on places and their building stock, their care and significance. The use of the IHBC’s service also confirms wider recognition of the complex role of historic fabric and its care in securing our collective futures, from supporting communities to managing carbon.’
… Public bodies are….well aware of the public benefit and interest embodied in the IHBC’s practice and ethical standards…
Public bodies are naturally especially well aware of the public benefit and interest embodied in the IHBC’s practice and ethical standards. The call from Kensington and Chelsea for a ‘Senior Design and Heritage Officer’ looks to managing the interface between heritage and design, as does East Herts Council’s call for a Principal Conservation and Urban Design Officer.
A more general regulatory focus is suggested in Peterborough’s Principal Conservation Officer post and Wrexham’s Conservation Officer role, while North Lincolnshire seeks a headline role of an Environment Officer, but with a ‘Built Conservation’ specification.
… heartening to see our networks’ regard for our standards from more commercially-focussed operations…
‘The private sector is of course responsible for the care and curation of the vast majority of our heritage resources. So it is as ever both gratifying and heartening to see our networks’ regard for our standards from more commercially-focussed operations. For this round, Pegasus Group – Senior or Principal Heritage Consultant is the stand-out posting!
‘Clearly all our ‘Jobs etc’ posts reflect the exceptionally wide spectrum of relevant roles encompassed by the IHBC’s accreditation model, the IHBC Areas of Competence, and the skills represented there.’
‘To find out more on such matters, our MATE and related sessions support accreditation, while they also delve into the IHBC’s Competences and Conservation Cycle. As such they help applicants’ align their skills to the principles we use to assess interdisciplinary competence, all in line with national and international conservation practice standards.’
