Dear all,

Last week, we at the Open Preservation Foundation (OPF)
<https://openpreservation.org/> announced a job opening for a new Executive
Director. This is a brilliant opportunity for an experienced, energetic and
strategic leader, able to take a hands-on approach to meet the demands of
this exciting role.

The OPF is dedicated to supporting open-source digital preservation for
everyone. We create tools, provide technical advice, publish guidance and
bring the community together to share knowledge and collaborate. The OPF
currently stands at the forefront of a global effort to ensure the
continued accessibility, integrity, and usability of our digital heritage
now and for the future.

We are a small, member-led organisation with highly engaged partners and
technical contributors. Our impact surpasses our size. The OPF tools and
resources are free to all and are downloaded many thousands of times each
month. Our new Executive Director will join a highly dedicated expert team.
You will provide strategic leadership to the organisation, engage with our
members and the wider community to improve access to open digital
preservation for all, and collaborate with a Board of directors with over a
century of digital preservation experience between them.

If you are passionate about empowering the world to protect their digital
memories, we would love to hear from you. You will have the opportunity to
learn from our staff, board, members and partners to develop your skills
and knowledge of this challenging and important field. You will also
benefit from flexible working hours, remote working, travel to conferences
and meetings, generous holiday entitlement and a workplace pension scheme.
