The International Center of Medieval Art (“the ICMA”) seeks applications for a 6-month part-time position as ICMA Coordinator for Digital Engagement, a post supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) emergency relief response to COVID-19. The Coordinator will work with the ICMA President, Vice President, Chairs of our committees on Advocacy, Digital Resources, and Programs & Lectures, and our Executive Director to develop and oversee online offerings that serve the needs of scholars, instructors, museum professionals, and other enthusiasts and specialists in medieval art history at a time when we cannot gather in person. The ICMA Coordinator for Digital Engagement will be the contact person for a suite of online initiatives that include: a repository of resources for online teaching; digital events with museum professionals; virtual classroom visits with experts in the field; mentoring sessions; and an oral history project with podcast interviews.

Applicants must hold or be pursuing a PhD in medieval art history, be eligible to work in the United States, currently be without full-time employment, and have experience with and curiosity about digital platforms for meetings, pedagogy, and collaborative work (such as Zoom, Crowdcast, Perusall, and Voicethread). We underscore that the individual hired may hold another paid position, but it should not qualify as “full-time” under the legal US definition.
