The Museum has an exciting opportunity for a professional to join the Collection Data and Digitisation business unit as a Digital Asset Management System (DAMS) Coordinator. This role is responsible for the day-to-day administration and use of the DAMS; works hands-on with the digital assets and data; and trains and supports users of the DAMS. The position also has a pivotal role in cohesively integrating use of the DAMS across the Museum’s systems and programs, including the Museum’ collection management system.
The role works within the Collection Systems (CS) team which is the business owner of two critical Museum systems – the collection management system, currently EMu, and digital asset management system, currently Piction. Assets stored in Piction relate to cross-museum functions as well as to collections and collection data is managed across both systems as well as being published online via Piction. As part of the CS team, you will closely collaborate with the Collection Systems Coordinator and the Collection Systems Support Officer to develop, manage, and promote the systems, processes and standards for collection information and digital assets.
