Metadata Cataloguer (DAM)

We are a team of people who love and look after six of the most wonderful palaces in the world: Hampton Court Palace, the Tower of London, Kensington Palace, the Banqueting House, Kew Palace and Hillsborough Castle and Gardens. We create space for spirits to stir and be stirred. We want everyone to feel welcome and accepted. We tell stories about the monarchs you know, and the lives you don’t. We let people explore and we set minds racing.

You will be joining our friendly and experienced Information Management team that looks after information and digital assets across all six palaces. We are currently recruiting for a Metadata Cataloguer to assist the Product Executive and Digital Asset Management (DAM) team that touches every part of the organisation including Conservation Collection Care and Collections Management, Public Engagement Retail, Press and Marketing and Membership.

As a Metadata Cataloguer you will support, assist and help train users of the DAM system in the creation of metadata for digital assets and the entering of this metadata into the DAM system for each digital asset uploaded. You will catalogue DAM assets for various departments and promote the DAM system as the centralised repository of digital images, audio and video assets for palace-wide use.  You will manage the DAM taxonomy and support the DAM Product Executive with the upgrade to a new version of the system.

You will have an excellent eye for detail and be able to maintain a high level of accuracy under pressure. You will be a people-person who thrives on fostering good working relationships with the users of the DAM system.

Based at Hampton Court Palace, you may be required to travel to our other sites on occasion.

Closing date      Monday 20th June 2022
