Citizens Advice Hammersmith and Fulham (CAHF) is a busy, dynamic award winning Service. We deliver a variety of projects via face to face and digital media.
Since 2012 we have delivered a volunteer led community library service at Avonmore library. In April 2024 we embarked on running a second community focused library at Askew Road. To support CAHF community library delivery at both libraries, we introduced the role of Community Library Coordinator.

Working collaboratively with colleagues, the Coordinator will oversee and help develop engaging library events, while also supporting the dedicated volunteers who contribute to the successful delivery of our community-focused services.
About You:
You will have strong interpersonal and communication skills, along with enthusiasm for working in the library sector. You should be confident in promoting the library service and delivering excellent customer service to a diverse range of users. While previous library experience is desirable, it is not essential.
The roles require:
- A good level of community awareness, with experience of working with diverse communities
- Excellent customer care skills
- An interest in literacy and reading
- The ability to recruit, induct, and support library volunteers in service delivery
- Confidence in providing digital support to library users
- The ability to oversee the library events calendar and work with both new and existing partners to develop additional community-focused activities
- The ability to adapt and respond to complex, ever-changing environments, taking opportunities to improve the way things are done
