The role and Team

This role is a 0.5 FTE job-share as Repository Officer in the Research and Systems Team, part of Durham University Library and Collections. The preferred working pattern will cover the start of the working week (Mon-Wed), but this will be open to discussion.

The Repository Officer takes a leading role in the development of the university publication repositories (scholarly publications and theses). The repositories play a key part in the dissemination of research output and underpin the University's policy and approach to support open research. The role holder:

  • Builds and maintains an awareness of developments (policy drivers, functionality and metadata requirements) in the wider open access environment and communicates that with stakeholders at Durham University.
  • Contributes to planning and development of wider services around open access, scholarly communications and research support.
  • Delivers advocacy, training and support activity to academic and professional staff driving engagement with open access, repository and research support services.
  • Ensures administrative tasks are appropriately prioritised and completed to deliver a stakeholder-focussed service.

We are an ambitious and developing team with a focus on providing the best experience for our students, researchers and the wider community. We are valued partners working with our students, professional services and academics across the University, and professionals and organisations regionally, nationally and internationally.
