Do you enjoy working in a busy College Library, meeting and helping students and staff and providing excellent customer service?
Our Haywards Heath campus is looking for an enthusiastic Library Assistant. You will be helping students find and use resources and assisting the Site Librarian with improving and maintaining stock and facilities. You will be providing an excellent customer experience to everyone who visits the Library. Your role will be to provide a welcoming environment for our students, promoting our services, assisting students to make effective use of the library and all its resources, as well as carrying out a wide range of administrative duties.
Experience of working in a Library, IT skills, proven communication and inter-personal skills are essential. Experience of working in further education and qualifications in administration, IT or library work would be advantageous. You will enjoy working as part of a team, but also in a solo role as the post demands. Effective communication skills, organisational skills and ability to prioritise work are paramount.
Haywards Heath is a small and friendly campus with a strong culture of learning, collaboration and professional autonomy. We are committed to support the well-being of our staff to ensure a good life/work balance. Flexible working options are available for non-teaching hours (preparation, planning and assessment time).
We have a fantastic range of staff benefits, highly competitive against what is offered by the private sector and other organisations, including:
* Local Government Pension Scheme - the Group contributes 20.4% of your actual pensionable pay.
* 25 days annual leave, increasing to 28 days in line with continuous service, plus bank holidays and college closure days over the Christmas period which are not deducted from annual leave entitlement (paid as part of the salary for Term-Time-Only roles) and a wellbeing day. Plus, the opportunity to purchase up to 5 days additional leave.
* Discount schemes - including discounts on shopping, restaurants, travel and onsite facilities such as our gym and First Steps Childcare nurseries (specific campuses only).
* Family friendly policies - including enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption pay (dependant on continuous service).
* Continuous professional development opportunities - including development days, funded apprenticeships and access to a range of other courses and activities.
* And much more - check out the Staff Benefits booklet attached to this advert for more information about our fantastic range of benefits available to staff.
Working in a vibrant and inclusive further education college is an inspiring experience. Our staff have a relentless focus on delivering outstanding teaching, learning and support, where you'll encounter a diverse student body, a positive atmosphere, ample support services, innovative teaching methods, community engagement and a celebration of individual differences. It's an environment that fosters personal growth and collaboration, to change lives through learning.
