Is your heart in the nonprofit world? Are you passionate about the arts? Do you enjoy a vibrant, fast-paced environment? Bring your energy and enthusiasm to the Richmond Symphony in the role of the Assistant Librarian. You will help change lives through the power of music by providing key administrative support to musicians of the Symphony.

What exactly would I do?

As the part-time Assistant Librarian, you would work alongside the Orchestra Librarian to provide the orchestra with sheet music. The day may find you transferring bowings from principal string stands to the rest of the section, building musician folders, copying/scanning music or acting as the Orchestra Librarian in their absence. The evening would most certainly find you attending a performance and supporting the Operations team.

• A commitment to our core values of welcoming, passion, innovation, inclusivity and quality is required. 
• A solid working knowledge of orchestration, scores, music notation and stringed instrument bowing techniques is a must. 
• Familiarity with languages such as Italian, French, German and Spanish would be a plus. 
• Highly developed time management, attention to detail and organizational skills, combined with flexibility and the ability to meet simultaneous deadlines, act with discretion and relate to a diverse group of people are all desirable traits.
