About the role
Worcestershire Libraries are recruiting. We have vacancies in the Redditch Cluster covering Redditch, Alvechurch, Wythall and Woodrow libraries. The role is diverse, exciting and no two days are the same. You will help our customers access a wide range of resources and services. A typical day could see you provide digital one‑to‑one support, lead events and activities such as a song or storytelling session for children or an online activity group for adults. Expect to learn something new every day in a fast‑paced customer‑focused environment. You will need to be enthusiastic, energetic and flexible with excellent customer service skills. A will to find an answer to whatever question is asked is key. You may have a background in retail, community, education, early years or library work – but whatever your experience, your understanding of the customer will be crucial. If you enjoy working with people, thrive on providing excellent customer service and you would like to be part of an innovative and enthusiastic team, then we would like to hear from you. Working hours are based on a rota and include Saturdays. Interviews will include a group session with those who are successful moving on to a 1‑to‑1 interview.
We are inclusive – this is important to us and we are proud to be a Disability Confident Employer. Disability Confident is helping us recruit and retain great people to meet our workforce needs. If you have a disability and require reasonable adjustments, please let us know.
