IHBC Director Sean O\u2019Reilly said: \u2018Reflecting the usual wide spectrum of roles represented on our \u2018<\/em>Jobs etc<\/em><\/a>\u2019 <\/em>service, we have been carrying posts from across all the skills areas encompassed in the<\/em> IHBC Areas of Competence<\/a>, our model for assessing and managing competence in conservation practice.<\/p>\n

Jobs in the public sector show that the classic interdisciplinary Conservation Officer-styled roles loom as large as ever.\u00a0 These demand skills that range right across the IHBC Areas of Competence<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

Such posts are well represented \u2013 if not so familiarly titled \u2013 in Brighton & Hove City Council\u2019s Senior Planning Officer (Conservation), and Caerphilly Council\u2019s Placemaking and Building Conservation Officer.<\/p>\n

\u2026 classic interdisciplinary Conservation Officer-styled roles loom as large as ever\u2026<\/span><\/em><\/h2>\n

Comparable conservation skills sets are also sought across private, infrastructure and charity sectors .\u00a0 Nuances in priority areas for skills are more clearly evident in job titles, specifying areas such as Planning, Design and Heritage: Parker Planning Services\u2019 Principal Heritage Consultant; High Speed 1\u2019s Heritage & Design Adviser and Canal & River Trust\u2019s Heritage Advisor.<\/p>\n

The IHBC Areas of Competence<\/a> model also encompasses a project management framework, which explains why IHBC accreditation offers employers unique comfort when assessing candidates\u2019 competence there.\u00a0 Not surprisingly, it is in more urban roles where project and planning skills sets tied to IHBC accreditation may be highlighted, as in Leeds\u2019 search for a Project Officer and Sandwell\u2019s call for a Project Manager.<\/p>\n

Spanning the spectrum of related roles are two posts with government regulatory body Historic England – Assistant Inspector of Historic Buildings and Areas\u00a0 and Maritime Archaeologist \u2013 that exemplify the breadth of specific skills regularly sought for staff there.<\/p>\n
