Jobs Information Service (JIS)

Available to all IfA members by email free of charge

• View the latest fully compiled JIS bulletin (requires IfA Member log-in)
• Paid adverts will be available to view here from 1 June (public page - no log in required)

IfA provides a weekly jobs bulletin which carries advertisements placed exclusively by employers and all archaeological, heritage and research opportunities appearing in the national press and specialist journals during that week. This service is the Jobs Information Service (JIS). It is the most comprehensive source of information about work in archaeology and related disciplines, and is primarily intended for the archaeological profession.

This service is available by email to IfA members free of charge and by post for a small subscription fee.

To subscribe to the email list please contact the IfA office on 0118 378 6446 or email admin@archaeologists.net

Non-members

JIS is available to non-members for a fee of £20 for 2 months; £40 for 6 months and £60 for one year. Please email admin@archaeologists.net or you can pay online below using PayPal

JIS subscription duration

2 months £20.00 6 months £40.00 1 year £60.00

Alternatively non-members may wish to consider joining the IfA as the subscription fee for some levels is cheaper that the cost of subscribing. Not only would you be able to receive the JIS by email, but you would also receive a copy of The Archaeologist magazine, the Yearbook and directory of members and other IfA publications. For further information please see our Join page.

Institutional subscriptions

Institutions can receive the service for £150 which includes four free advertisements.

Advertisers

Advertisements can be placed in JIS for a fee of £50 for a single paragraph – ideal for digging jobs, at £100 for a standard size (175mm wide by 110mm deep). Larger adverts will be charged more, up to £250, for an A4 sheet; please enquire. Final copy should be emailed to Lynne Bevan at the address below, to arrive no later than 2pm on Tuesday to appear in Wednesday’s bulletin. Please send advertisements as simple word documents without complex formatting or logos. We are unable to accept PDF files.

Advertising fee changes - from 1 June 2011

Registered Organisations can now advertise in the JIS for free from 1 June. FAME members can place an advert for the flat rate fee of £75 per advert. All paid adverts from 1 June will also appear publicly on the IfA website as well as in the compiled JIS bulletin that goes to members and subscribers.
