Background

About Jessica Bryan

As a Project Officer specialising in fieldwork my role includes archaeological site management, leadership and mentoring, archaeological excavation and recording, post-excavation stratigraphic analysis and publication. I also enjoy communicating our findings to stakeholders and wider audiences. I have experience undertaking archaeological work across the UK, with over 10 years of experience of complex sites in London. I have been part of the supervisory teams for some of MOLA London's biggest projects including Bloomberg London (Temple of Mithras), Crossrail Broadgate, Thames Tideway, HS2 Euston St James' burial ground, 40 Leadenhall and 50 Fenchurch. I graduated from the Sheffield University in 2004 and in 2007/2008 completed a Master's degree in Material Culture at the University of Glasgow. Additionally to fieldwork I spent a year working for the Portable Antiquities Scheme at Kent County Council and a secondment as a Science Advisor in London for Historic England. My favourite “find” is yet to be published. In general I enjoy uncovering the everyday evidence which shows that people (broadly speaking) are essentially all the same, it doesn’t matter where / when they lived. I am on the branch committee of the national Prospect Union Archaeologists Branch.
