Job description

Join one of the world’s greatest literary institutions and oversee the care, development, and strategic use of our iconic home in St James’s Square as we continue to inspire and support readers, writers and thinkers from across the globe.

About us

Founded in 1841, The London Library is a thriving hub of inspiration, discovery and creativity. With a collection of over one million books and a proud history of nurturing literary talent, it remains a cornerstone of the UK’s cultural and intellectual life.

We are an independent, subscription-based library and registered charity that offers members access to an unparalleled collection, beautiful working spaces in central London, and an extensive programme of events and learning opportunities. Our members come from all walks of life and include readers, researchers, emerging and established writers, and anyone with a passion for the written word.

About the role

This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of the strategic and operational estates management of our historic building, ensuring it remains safe, sustainable, and fit for purpose while preserving its historic character. Reporting to the Director of Finance and Resources, you will lead the facilities function, oversee all aspects of health and safety for the Library, and deliver an ambitious programme of capital projects. You will also provide expertise to Trustees and colleagues, contributing to estate strategy and risk management. As a key member of the management team, you will play a vital role in enhancing the experience of everyone who steps through our doors, from members and staff to visitors and event partners.

What we’re looking for

We are seeking a highly skilled and collaborative leader with experience in facilities and building management, ideally within a heritage or multi-use setting. You will bring:

  • Strong knowledge of health, safety, and compliance, with relevant professional qualifications
  • A proven record in delivering capital works, maintenance, and improvement projects
  • Experience in managing budgets, procurement, and contract negotiations
  • The ability to lead, mentor, and inspire multi-disciplinary teams
  • A passion for preserving heritage buildings while embracing modern, sustainable practices

If you are ready to take on a role that blends operational excellence, strategic leadership, and stewardship of one of the UK’s most distinctive cultural spaces, we’d love to hear from you.

Closing date for applications: 9 a.m. Monday 20th October 2025
