English Heritage launches new trainee scheme for graduates in archaeology, history, conservation, planning, urban design or environmental sciences, and/or those who have substantial practical work experience in a heritage discipline (such as archaeology, specialist planning or buildings’ history).
The new initiative is for historic environment practitioners – the Historic Environment Traineeship (HET) Scheme. Up to 10 two-year professional work placements will be available under the Scheme which will provide work-experience training in the application of professional conservation management skills in a planning and development context. Placements will be provided, supervised, administered and validated by English Heritage.
Although not a direct council traineeship, this scheme will include close partnership with with local councils and later on may include placements working in councils.
Further information about the Scheme and information on how to apply is available at www.english-heritage.org.uk/jobs under the Traineeships menu.
