What we are looking for

Would you like to be part of an incredible team who are passionate about promoting reading with our students? Do you want to work with staff who promote a culture of exceptional academic success and achievement? Would you like to work in a school ranked as the top state comprehensive school in the East Midlands by the Sunday Times for 2022, based on GCSE and A Level results?

Northampton School for Boys is looking for a Library Administrator to share in our ambitious, supportive and aspirational culture who can help to deliver our reading curriculum to the highest standards. The Library is a vibrant hub within the School, where we encourage our students to enjoy a wide range of quality reading materials both in structured lessons and during breaks, lunchtimes and after school.

You must be highly motivated with a desire to support students with a range of reading needs – from those who don’t know what books they would enjoy, to others looking for their next challenging adventure. We are seeking a Library Administrator who can engage with our students – particularly in Years 7 and 8 – to foster the comprehension, inference and deductive skills needed to strengthen their reading profile. We also need you to be highly organised, able to manage a considerable budget, and track deliveries, stock and orders.
