Music Librarian

Application deadline: 
Saturday, 15 March 2025
Description of vacancy: 

As Music Librarian at Westminster Music Library, you can make your own powerful contribution to enriching the lives of children, young people, musicians and music lovers across our diverse communities. Westminster boasts one of the UK’s largest public music libraries. Our specialist service is home to much more than sheet music, music books, periodicals and archive materials. It also offers free-to-use digital pianos and ukuleles; hosts regular free events including concerts, workshops and talks; and hires out sets for choir and orchestral performances. 

In this varied and vital role, you will lead the redevelopment of our nationally recognised orchestral set hire service. You’ll play a key part in shaping the future delivery of the service, making it more available to residents across Westminster’s communities and the whole of the UK; this will include identifying and addressing barriers to access. 

This is a frontline role which will include evening and weekend working to maintain the delivery of the service across our opening hours.

You will line manage a small team of library officers and work alongside the Westminster Reference Library manager, other librarians, partners and volunteers to deliver the service.
