Are you the person everyone in a building relies on to get things done? If you have ever worked as a Caretaker, or in a similar hands-on role, this could be your next step. You don't need specific facilities or library experience, just a practical approach, a friendly manner, and a willingness to learn. We'll support you with the rest.

We are looking for someone who can maintain the smooth running of the building and take responsibility for security and facilities tasks. This includes regular safety patrols, opening and closing the library building, enforcement of library by-laws, and the completion of general building checks.
