Library Manager - Torfaen Libraries

The post-holder will be responsible for all aspects of the day-to- day running of the three libraries within the borough, including the management of operational staff and the premises management of Cwmbran and Pontypool Libraries. Our libraries are busy places with lots going on, so you will need to be able to manage and prioritise tasks effectively and have the skills to organise and motivate Library Assistants working across the three buildings.

The Library Manager will be an advocate for the library service and will work as part of the senior team to help deliver on key strategic objectives. You will need excellent communication skills and you will work closely with the senior team under the direction of the Team Leader to help ensure these objectives are delivered. This will include responsibility for the collection and management of statistics in relation to service planning and local and national strategic goals, and participation in management meetings.
