UWC Adriatic is seeking a Head of Library and Learning Resources. The deadline for applications is Sunday 9 May 2021.

UWC Adriatic – Collegio del Mondo Unito dell’Adriatico ONLUS
Head of Library and Learning Resources Position
The College is looking to appoint a 50% part-time Head of Library and Learning Resources on a one-year fixed-term contract to start in August 2021.

The College

UWC Adriatic is one of the 18 UWC schools and colleges across the world. The college shares the UWC Movement Mission to make education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future. UWC Adriatic is set in the picturesque village of Duino, near Trieste in north-eastern Italy. It offers a challenging holistic, residential educational programme including the two-year IB Diploma (taught in English) to around 185 students from 80 countries. The college mission is to welcome young people at the threshold of adult independence and guide them on their way to being compassionate and conscientious individuals with the energy and understanding to work for positive change.

The Post

The Head of Library and Learning Resources will report to the Deputy Head (Academic) and will work in close contact with the librarian, teachers, the IT technicians and the college psychologist.
The post-holder will undertake the following responsibilities:

Library

  • Oversee the duties performed by the college librarian.
  • Coordinate the request for and allocation of the library budget and the purchasing of all textual and visual resources for the library so as to provide a wide selection of contemporary resources in support of the college programme including wider student learning and interest.
  • Liaise with Head of Department over the resources held in the library for each subject area.
  • Maintain rules of use of the library.
  • Oversee the cataloguing and inventory process of the library as performed by the college librarian.
  • Act as a teacher librarian when available in the library.
  • Maintain the resources and information on the library website.

Learning Resources

  • Develop and deliver research skills and information literacy guidance, training and support to students in groups and individually.
  • In collaboration with the Deputy Head (Academic), tutors and teachers, develop and implement academic support plans for students in difficulty.
  • Provide study support for students.

The Person
UWC Adriatic is a small boarding college which offers students and staff the opportunity to engage intensely in the educational experience of the students. Any suitable applicant must work in a collaborative and consultative manner and understand the need for constructive intervention and patience as essential components of non-curricular learning that occurs in an environment of empowering students for taking the next step towards independence.
A significant amount of the work conducted requires a very high level of English. It is therefore a requirement of this position that the post-holder speaks English to native-speaker level or near native-speaker level and has a high proficiency in written English.

Remuneration and employment details
The post-holder will be paid a salary based on the experience and in line with the college’s pay scale. The appointment will be on level D of the Federculture national labour contract.
For this appointment, only EU/EEA/Swiss nationals or nationals of other countries in possession of a valid long-term Italian work residence permit will be accepted.

How to apply
Applications including a CV, a letter of application (no longer than one side of A4), passport or identity card photocopy and the names and contact information for two professional referees should be made by email by May 9th, 2021. UWC Adriatic will need to be provided with or to seek evidence that candidates have police clearance and supporting references demonstrating they are suitable to work with young people in a residential community. Interviews with candidates will take place shortly after the selection deadline.
This job advert does not bind the College to identify the candidate suitable for the post.
