Charlotte Ward

I have over 10 years experience working in the heritage and museum sector predominantly in front of house or outreach roles. As a historian, I have developed expert knowledge in British and European history (specialisms include naval history, first and second world wars, sport history, the seventeenth century and 18th -20th century social history) and am proficient in historical research using archives.

I am a self-motivated, professional and reliable individual and pride myself on my excellent 
interpersonal and communication skills. I am hard working, supportive and enthusiastic and enjoy 
working both independently and as part of a collaborative team. I have excellent research and 
analytical skills and the ability to interpret, edit and present large volumes of information. I am 
confident is using digital technologies including Microsoft, webCMS, project management software, social media channels and Adobe.
