Vacancy for Research Projects Data Analyst at The National Archives (UK)

29 July 2025

London, England

Fixed Term

Are you passionate about data and making a difference in the public sector? The National Archives is looking for a talented data specialist to transform archival metadata, bringing history to life.

About Us:

At The National Archives, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research into all aspects of our collections and activities is at the heart of what we do. This role will support two major ongoing projects:

  • EHRI-UKis the national node of the EHRI project, a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) committed to trans-national Holocaust research, commemoration, and education. One of the central tenets of EHRI-UK is the integration of information about dispersed Holocaust archives into the central EHRI portal.
  • The 1941 National Farm Surveyoffers a window into the UK’s agriculture and land use during the Second World War. It contains extensive data on over 300,000 farms in England and Wales. Currently, the complex filing system makes it difficult for readers to access these records. This project, funded by the Lund Trust, aims to make these records more accessible online.

About the Role:

As a data analyst for these projects, you will design and develop scripts and tools to automate the processing and transformation of textual archival metadata. The data formats you will work with include .csv, .xlsx, .xml, and .json. You will be based in our Research, Grants, and Academic Engagement Department, collaborating with colleagues across the organization to provide technical consultancy and solutions.
