We are building a new Museum for Waitaha Canterbury – a world-class facility for the taonga (treasures) we care for and a place to tell the stories of our region and the people who live here.
We are seeking a Digitisation Technician to work on a major project inventorying the Museum collection of 2.3 million objects, 60% of which are not yet on the Vernon Collections Management System. Working with the Collections Inventory Project Manager and existing Inventory Project staff, the Digitisation Technician will focus on the capture of data and images to add to basic electronic records for the human and natural history collections.
You will ideally have experience in photography; experience working in a museum or similar organisation is an advantage. Attention to detail and accuracy is essential. With more than 1.7 million objects left to digitise, you must be able to manage repetitive tasks.

Applications must be in the specified format with all the requested information to be accepted.
