Are you ready to embark on a once-in-a-career journey? The City of Burbank seeks a visionary and innovative leader to shape the future of its library services and design an unparalleled community space - the new Central Library. As the next Library Services Director, you will have the unique opportunity to lead a department and leave your mark on a library system.
Burbank is a vibrant place with a deep sense of community, home to 108,000 residents and a daytime population of up to 200,000. While Burbank is nicknamed the “Media Capital of the World” and has a bustling urban center, it is also a picturesque city with small-town charm, excellent schools, sunny weather, tree-lined neighborhoods, and beautiful open spaces, proximate to both the ocean and mountains.
The ideal candidate is an expert in library and information services who seamlessly blends their warmth with their skills and professionalism, demonstrating authenticity, enthusiasm, drive, creativity, inclusive leadership, and adept communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills.
If you are passionate about creating a vibrant, welcoming, and forward-thinking library, have the leadership qualities to inspire and have natural team-building skills, are an effective manager, and thrive in a dynamic setting, this job is for you.
A typical way to demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and abilities required for the position would be to possess a Master’s Degree in Library and/or Information Science and five years of increasingly responsible and varied professional library experience, two years of which have been in an administrative capacity. The annual salary for this position goes up to $ 217,159, which is negotiable based on the selected candidate's experience and qualifications. The City provides an excellent benefit package.
