The Centre for Computing History is an accredited museum and charity situated in Cambridge, with collections and learning at its heart. The museum's core purpose is to increase understanding of the history of computing by exploring its social, cultural and historical impact.

Our collection rightly celebrates the incredible evolution of computing technology. However, the museum also has a responsibility to recognise the ecological impact of the rise of technology, and to date we have not explored these stories. We are excited to have secured funding from the Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund, run by the Museums Association, for an exciting new two-year project, Broken Tech : Broken Earth. We will be exploring how the explosion in technology over the last 80 years has impacted the local and global environment. More info can be found on our website. 

Role Summary 

We're now seeking a talented, energetic and efficient Project Coordinator to oversee this exploratory project. 

The Esmée Fairbairn Collections Fund, run by the Museums Association, aims to encourage participatory practice in museums, and this concept lies at the heart of this project. Participatory practice means involving visitors and communities in the creation and interpretation of museum exhibitions, programs, and events content – asking for stories about objects in the collection, rather than assuming we know what the most important stories are. This approach is inclusive, encourages visitors to feel ownership and helps museums discover untold stories about their collections.

We are looking for someone special to co-ordinate this process and exploit our unique platform to raise awareness of environmental issues and e-waste and to create change. The Project Co-ordinator will take ownership of the day-to-day operations of the Broken Earth Project, including working closely with all external and internal stakeholders, monitoring progress, and ensuring project milestones are met. This new fixed-term role is a critical part of the project and crucial to its success. 

The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate the following skills and experience: 

• Strong interest in conservation, ecology and promoting a circular economy 

• Excellent interpersonal, communication and advocacy skills 

• Confidence working with a range of colleagues across a variety of organisations 

• Proven organisational and time management skills

• Experience facilitating in-person and/or online events 

• A creative, positive, proactive and self-reliant approach to work

For more information, please see the attached job specification.

Terms 

• Project Co-ordinator (Fixed Term, Part time) 

• Job Title: Broken Tech : Broken Earth Project Co-ordinator 

• Hours: 22.5 hours per week ideally worked across three days (Weds-Fri) but flexibility is possible, subject to agreement (0.6 FTE). The role is likely to involve work outside of these hours, in the evenings and at weekends. Fixed term until September 2026. 

• Salary: £26,728 p.a. pro-rata  

• Responsible to: CEO
