Based in our Robertson House office, our team currently comprises the Business Manager, Museums and Heritage Coordinator and Governance and Communications Officer. Working closely with the Trustees, our team carries out the work of AMOT, whether that’s giving network updates, museum support and, of course, creating and running the AMOT Annual Conference.
Dr Andrew Bamford is AMOT’s Museums and Heritage Coordinator. He is a military historian and author, whose research has mostly been on the British Army circa 1740-1815 with a focus on the evolution and functioning of the regimental system. This research became the focus of his first book, which presented the findings of his PhD research. He later went on to test those conclusions with a case-study that looked at the regimental history of the 12th Light Dragoons in the Napoleonic Era, which was produced with the support and assistance of the 9th/12th Royal Lancers Museum and drew heavily on items from their archives. Elsewhere he has written on the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745 and Sir Thomas Graham’s 1814 campaign in the Low Countries, and he is currently editing a volume on amphibious warfare in the long eighteenth century.
Before joining AMOT he worked in the academic and publishing sectors, most recently as founding editor of Helion and Company’s ‘From Reason to Revolution 1721-1815’ book series, and has also worked with local regimental museums both as a volunteer researcher and as a freelance contractor on an education project. He is an active member of the Society for Army Historical Research and has served for many years on its Council, most recently as Hon. Secretary. A Yorkshireman by birth, Andrew now lives in Staffordshire with his wife Lucy and their cocker spaniel Luna.
Clarinda Snowball has joined AMOT after a career of project management in industry and public events, working in school administration and the charity sector.
With an eye and ear on family military matters both in England and Scotland, she has found it a smooth transition and very proud making to now be working in the heart of it.
After living 35 years in Scotland, Clarinda is now settled in West Sussex and continues to cheer loudly for Scotland in the rugby!
Hannah Larkin is a recent graduate from Durham University. Having studied BA Liberal Arts with a focus in English Literature and Art History, she is enthusiastic about the heritage sector and looks forward to applying the skills she has learned throughout her degree to AMOT. Her roles in previous work experience include Development and Outreach Officer for the Art Society and Logistics Manager for the Clay Pigeon Society’s Tweed Ball and have prepared her well for the position she holds.
Alongside her role at AMOT, Hannah will be studying a MA Law Conversion with the University of Law at Royal Holloway, preparing to become a solicitor. She currently lives in Surrey with her family, including sprocker spaniel Alfie.
