Philip de Jersey has been the States of Guernsey archaeologist since 2008. Between 1992 and 2007 he worked at the Institute of Archaeology, University of Oxford, maintaining and developing the Celtic Coin Index and publishing widely on the Iron Age coinage of Britain and France. His volume on Coin Hoards in Iron Age Britain was awarded the North Book Prize by the British Numismatic Society in 2016. He returned to his native island in 2007 and since then has excavated on many sites across the Channel Islands, including the Le Câtillon II hoard site in Jersey. Current research interests include ongoing work on Le Câtillon and other hoards in Jersey, and the investigation of sites dating from the early Iron Age to late Roman periods on Longis Common, Alderney.
