Preservationists are most often employed in government, at levels ranging from federal to state and local, or for non-profit organizations. Preservationists working in government may be focused on ensuring that projects comply with relevant laws on historic preservation, maintaining digital or physical archives, or managing a locality's historic resources to promote education, tourism or economic development.
Preservationists may also engage in advocacy work, particularly if working outside of government, to promote the preservation of various historical or cultural resources. As in many kinds of non-profit work, these kinds of jobs can incorporate a wide range of duties, including communications, event planning and working with politicians.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects 19 percent employment growth for the overlapping category of archivists, curators and museum workers from 2020 to 2030. This growth is expected to be driven by an increasing demand to digitze and archive public records as well as by increasing public interest in museums and other cultural sites.
While a master's degree in history, anthropology or archeology, or urban planning may be necessary for some positions, an undergraduate education combined with internship or other work experience, can help you get started in the field.
