The Role


The Royal College of Nursing Library and Heritage Centre will document, preserve and explore the past, present and future of nursing in the United Kingdom; and continue to hold the most extensive resource for nursing in Europe. It aims to inspire learning and debate on issues that concern nursing for the benefit of all by providing access to a high quality collection of research resources to suit nurses at all stages of their careers.

This newly created role offers you the opportunity to lead on the first RCN Audience Engagement Plan to develop target audiences, including RCN members, staff and the public.
Working from our modernised Library and Heritage Centre at RCN's historic headquarters at 20 Cavendish Square (due to open autumn 2013) you will be part of a team providing members and the public with access to our library, historic collections, exhibition, shop, and cafe services.

Working within the Standards, Knowledge and Information Services team you will work collaboratively with existing RCN teams that deliver events and communications to bring together a programme of events and activities to specialist nursing members. Together you will use specialist historical and contemporary collections to inspire learning and debate in a leading Royal College. You will also develop relationships with appropriate external partners to reach a wider public audience.

The Person

The successful candidate will have a postgraduate museum qualification (or similar); professional audience engagement experience in heritage or cultural services; experience of project management; ICT literacy with confidence to develop skills further; and strong negotiation and collaboration skills to work with a wide range of stakeholders.

Experience of developing and coordinating audience development activities and familiarity with methods of widening access to and take-up of services in a cultural or heritage context would be an advantage.

Requirements
