Do you have a passion for sharing books and rhymes with young children? Do you understand the importance of shared reading for early language development and child/carer bonding? If so, this could be the job for you

We are looking for a dynamic and self-motivated individual to join Bristol libraries to champion this cause as a library early years coordinator within the Reader Engagement Team.

Bristol libraires aim to be at the forefront of enriching lives and supporting children, families & communities. We are determined in enabling everyone to fulfil their potential by nurturing a love of libraries & reading.

In this role, you will be responsible for promoting the library service to children and families, in order to encourage library use and develop shared projects.

You will also be supporting library colleagues by organising and participating in a programme of children’s activities and liaising with related partners and organisations in the delivery of services, including schools, other agencies and charities.

You will also lead on & oversee the delivery of the Bookstart scheme in partnership with Booktrust
**, **which sees free books gifted to all new births across the city and to targeted early years settings.

The ability to work regular evenings and weekends and occasional public holidays to meet the needs of the service as required, and the ability to work in a variety of localities and in different libraries as the service requires and be willing to travel to any location in the city as required, within the provisions of the Bristol Contract.

If you have a passion for working with early years children and families to encourage library use and develop shared projects, we would love to hear from you.

**Why Bristol City Council?**

At Bristol City Council, we go that extra mile for our people; we offer a work environment which is fast moving and supportive, giving you the chance to use your skills and develop new ones within a high profile organisation.

Join us and you’ll receive a generous rewards package including flexible working and flexi-time, membership of the Local Government Pension scheme, and a generous annual leave allowance. In addition you’ll be working in a supportive environment where you’ll have the chance to make Bristol a better place and contribute to its future.

**How do I apply?**

**For permanent Bristol City Council employees, this post will be a secondment.**
