After an early introduction to the world of commercial archaeology, Josh went off to pursue a DPhil from the University of Oxford. During his doctoral research, he lectured and tutored on the Undergraduate course in Archaeology and Anthropology. In 2015, he joined the team at Allen Archaeology Ltd as a Heritage Researcher. In 2019, his consultation work led him to coming onboard with DigVentures Ltd as Programme Manager, delivering their project schedule and work programme, alongside numerous high-profile projects including Palaeolithic and Quaternary research excavations featured in the BBC documentary ‘David Attenborough and the Mammoth Graveyard’. In 2023, he returned to Allen Archaeology as Post-Excavation Manager, overseeing the delivery of post-excavation reporting and publication outputs across the UK.
