Wellington City Council is looking for an experienced corporate librarian to provide library and information services to staff and elected Council members.

As the Council Librarian you will be expected to deliver an efficient and effective library and information service, facilitate customer research and manage library acquisitions. You will be responsible for the library assistant, also monitor and report on your budget and provide input into tactical business plans and strategies.

To succeed in this role you will need to have excellent communication skills, be customer focussed and be able to align the Library and Information Centre strategy with organisational goals.

You will be a self starter who can work without supervision.
