Librarian

The Ruth Gorse Academy are seeking to recruit an inspirational colleague to the role of Librarian. This role is of great importance to our work as an Academy - the successful applicant will be expected to effectively manage the library on a daily basis, to include stock management, student supervision and provision of assistance to all library users.

• Grade C/4 and above in GCSE English and Mathematics (or equivalent).
• Good knowledge and understanding of the reading and information resources required by students. Sound knowledge of literature for children and young adults.
• Experience of working in a school environment.
  
  Working as part of The GORSE Academies Trust, The Ruth Gorse Academy ensures that students receive an outstanding education that focuses on aspiration, high expectations and personalisation. Together these non-negotiable values instil in young people a self-belief that enables students to access the highest standard of higher education provision and employment. We believe that poverty and deprivation should, in no way, limit either the quality of a young person's educational experience or the levels of achievement to which those students are able to rise. In October 2023, the exceptional nature of our work at The Ruth Gorse Academy was again recognised by Ofsted and demonstrated within our GCSE results. We continue to be heavily oversubscribed year on year, as we deliver high quality education for each and every student.
  
  As a trust, we want to ensure that professionals at every stage in their career have the opportunity to enjoy expert support and training. We are pleased to offer a generous benefits package to our team - as we work together to create a rewarding future for all including:
• Membership to a local government pension scheme.
• Access to an Employee Assistance Programme which provides confidential professional advice and support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
• A commitment to continued investment in our professionals, supporting every member of staff throughout their career in the trust.
• Discounts and online offers at major high street/online retailers.
• £2k Cycle to work scheme.
