The Central Miramichi Historical Society is in need of a motivated and driven individual who is interested in the history of the communities on the Main Southwest Miramichi. Candidates must have a working knowledge of computers and experience writing detailed reports; in addition to transcribing handwritten letters. Over the course of the summer, the employee will be tasked with completing at least two exhibit pieces, which will be showcased at the Doak Provincial Heritage Site. These include a piece that commemorates the original members of the CMHS and an exhibit that explores the one roomed School House in Central New Brunswick. Outside of these projects, Summer employees will be expected to assist with conducting interviews of town elders. If a candidate is independent, analytical, and enjoys engaging with History on a daily Basis, they will thrive in our workplace environment.
