Successful applicants will be required to excavate and record archaeological features and deposits and/or to undertake finds-processing duties. These contracts are available on a fixed term basis for approximately 3 months with the possibility of extension.

A working knowledge of at least some period(s) of British archaeology is essential as is proven experience of archaeological fieldwork. Ideally this builds on previous professional employment in UK (or equivalent) contract archaeology.
