<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Colleagues,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is with bittersweet feelings that we announce the upcoming retirement of our long-time anthropology collection manager, Deborah Harding. While we recognize her achievements, devotion, and importance to the institution, it is with great
hope that we are posting an opening for her successor. The ideal candidate will have experience working with a global ethnographic collection and possess strong knowledge of North and South American cultural material. A Master’s degree in anthropology or museum
studies plus three years’ experience or the equivalent is preferred. This position will require a successful history with all processes required by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act and the ability to facilitate consultations with
pertinent stakeholders. Strong collection management database skills are a must and proficiency in Axiell EMu is even better. Just as Deborah has worked closely with her colleagues at the museum, her successor will be expected to participate in science and
research, public programming, exhibitions, education, conservation, and marketing. Managing students and volunteers, the anthropology collection manager will be able to maintain the safety and integrity of the collection so that it can continue to be a source
of inspiration and information for the Greater Pittsburgh community and beyond. Deborah’s exemplary work teaching finger weaving to members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee and her involvement in the ongoing digital repatriation of cultural material to the
Kuikuro of the Upper Xingu should serve as two examples of the types of collaborative external partnerships that can be forged in this position. As we continue to reflect on and take responsibility for our past collecting and exhibition practices, we reserve
hope that the next anthropology collection manager will contribute thoughtful dialogue and practical solutions for furthering our decolonization efforts and help us to cultivate vibrant relationships with diverse communities. For more information and to apply,
please see the job posting here: <a href="https://us60.dayforcehcm.com/CandidatePortal/en-US/car/Posting/View/3305">

<p class="MsoNormal">Please help us to spread the word. </p>
