About the Department

Library Services at Queen Mary has a vibrant international staff group and a rapidly evolving service base. We are working together to build a culture of diversity, service excellence and continuous improvement commensurate with the vision and long-term strategy of an ambitious and rapidly growing university which excels in teaching, learning and research, while retaining strong links to the local community in the East End of London.

We are seeking 1x Library Assistant in the Environment team within the Library Frontline Services. For information regarding the remit and responsibilities, please refer to the job pack for this post.

You would also spend part of each working day on a service point, providing drop-in help for students about library spaces, lending services and e-resources.

About You

You will be educated to A level or equivalent or be similarly qualified by experience. You will have experience of working in a library or have relevant transferable experience.

About the Role

This post is based primarily at the Mile End Campus in London, but you will be expected to work at other sites, including Whitechapel and West Smithfield Libraries.

The libraries are open 7 days per week and the post holder will be required to work evenings and weekends. The working pattern is: Monday-Thursday 12:00-20:00, and Sunday 10:45-18:15

Breaks are unpaid and are 1 hour on weekdays, 30 minutes at weekends.

About Queen Mary

At Queen Mary University of London, we believe that a diversity of ideas helps us achieve the previously unthinkable.

Throughout our history, we've fostered social justice and improved lives through academic excellence. And we continue to live and breathe this spirit today, not because it's simply 'the right thing to do' but for what it helps us achieve and the intellectual brilliance it delivers.

We continue to embrace diversity of thought and opinion in everything we do, in the belief that when views collide, disciplines interact, and perspectives intersect, truly original thought takes form.

Benefits

We offer competitive salaries, access to a generous pension scheme, 30 days' leave per annum (pro-rata for part-time/fixed-term), a season ticket loan scheme and access to a comprehensive range of personal and professional development opportunities. In addition, we offer a range of work life balance and family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, and campus facilities including an on-site nursery at the Mile End campus.

Queen Mary's commitment to our diverse and inclusive community is embedded in our appointments processes. Reasonable adjustments will be made at each stage of the recruitment process for any candidate with a disability. We are open to considering applications from candidates wishing to work flexibly.
