The Archaeology Data Service (ADS) is a world-leading digital repository which provides digital data archiving services for UK archaeology and heritage. We are an established  component of UKRI’s digital research infrastructure and we are also active in international collaborations, as a leading member of the ARIADNE Research Infrastructure. Established in 1996, we hold the Core Trust Seal, and we are the only digital repository to hold Archive Service Accreditation from the National Archives. Our Collections Policy is broad, covering all aspects of tangible heritage and we are developing a new area of focus on Heritage and Conservation Science.  We are based in the University of York but work closely with external partners, both in Higher Education and in the public and commercial archaeological sectors. This role comes about as a result of a successful £14.4m bid to AHRC by a consortium led by ADS to develop and host a Heritage Science Data Service (HSDS). The Service Manager will be responsible for the establishment and operational delivery of an effective service for users and depositors, liaising with funders and partners, and working with the ADS / HSDS Director and Assistant Director to manage the strategic development of the new service. They will help oversee the work of the HSDS  Collections Development Manager and work with the Training Manager to develop new training materials. They will be expected to represent the HSDS at national and international level and to ensure the successful integration of the HSDS within the existing portfolio of ADS activities and services.
