Paintings Conservator

We are looking to recruit three experienced and motivated Paintings Conservators to join our Paintings, Frames & Workshop Conservation team. Each of the three roles focuses on a different programme area – Tate Modern, Tate Britain and Loans/Tate Liverpool. You will focus on Tate’s programme of exhibitions & displays and loans, documenting, preparing and treating paintings within Tate’s Collection. We are seeking collaborators, who can work flexibly and work with us to provide innovative solutions to solve complex challenges for collection artworks and ensure high standards of preservation.

You will hold a recognised qualification in the Conservation of Easel Paintings and have demonstrable practical experience treating and stabilising a broad range of paintings with full consideration of the practical and ethical issues. You will have performed condition surveys, prepared estimates and will understand long-term care issues for paintings. Effective communication will be essential, as well as good time management, project planning skills and the ability to work well under pressure and to meet deadlines.

The role is based across the London sites, Tate Modern, Tate Britain and Tate Stores.

These positions are offered on fixed-term contracts - details can be found in the job description on our website.
