  • Procurement and reporting on resources expenditure.
  • Management of user enquiries for research resource content access.
  • Promote resource usage and using analytics to inform decisions.
  • Oversee all aspects of collections care, management, and development.
  • Assume responsibility for the Library's Special Collections.
  • Develop and implement Library policies and strategies and contribute to institute-wide direction.
  • Manage all aspects of access to the collections and external engagement.
To be considered for this role you will need the following skills and experience:

  • Relevant experience with library research resources.
  • Familiarity with common library systems and practices.
  • Experience in researcher support and digital working.
  • Knowledgeable about current sector challenges.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with colleagues, members, and external researchers, to provide effective services through confident relationship management skills.
  • Excellent IT skills with current experience of MS Office online, web-based information retrieval systems, and experience of analysing and interpreting quantitative and qualitative data to evidence decision-making.
  • Analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
