The National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain (NYBBGB) is seeking a Volunteer Music Librarian to support the management and development of the organisation’s music library.

This is an important supporting role helping ensure music is available, organised, and prepared for residential courses and performances.

Responsibilities

• Oversee cataloguing and organisation of the music library
• Support preparation of music for courses and concerts
• Maintain library systems and processes
• Work with artistic and administrative staff
• Advise on development and long-term management of the collection

We are looking for someone who:

• Has strong organisational skills
• Has experience of music libraries, ensembles, or education (desirable but not essential)
• Is comfortable working with cataloguing or database systems
• Has an interest in youth music and brass band repertoire
• Can work collaboratively with staff and volunteers

Time Commitment

Flexible, with activity typically focused around:

• Preparation ahead of courses
• Occasional attendance at courses or concerts (desirable but not essential)
• Remote cataloguing and organisation work

This is a voluntary role. Reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.

Our vision is to help build communities that save lives and serve each other through volunteering for health and first aid.

Young people play a crucial role in helping us realise this mission. As a volunteer with our youth teams, you’ll be trained to provide our young people with both life skills and lifesaving skills – all while having great fun!

You’ll be working with our brilliant Badgers (aged 7-10) or creative Cadets (aged 11-18). You’ll also have the opportunity to design your own role, whether that involves running fun activities – such as outdoor events, summer camps and mountain adventures – or providing ‘behind-the-scenes’ support.

We are looking for people to join our youth team to help us expand the delivery of SJA's youth programme, particularly our Cadet (10-17 years) members. We currently have opportunities on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings but welcome applicants who could assist us on other days as we do hope to expand further.

We’ll offer you the chance to become a fully-fledged Youth Leader, which will mean completing extra courses in First Aid or Adventure to broaden your capacity and experience.

Would you like to volunteer once a week or once a month? That’s entirely up to you. With the constant guidance of a friendly volunteer manager and youth team, you’ll have all the support you need to make bold strides and rediscover your inner ‘big kid’.

Typically, Cadet groups meet weekly in school term-time. Full Network monthly update meetings take place on the first Monday of each month (this can be attended in person, online or viewed later).

This role is exempt from the provisions of the Rehabilitations Offenders Act and as such as Enhanced DBS check will be obtained.
