About the Position

Built on the principles of Positive Youth Development, the After School Supervisor leads the Library's after school enrichment and educational offerings for students across the system. This is an outward-facing role. The person in it spends real time at community tables learning what students and families need after the school day ends, then turns what they learn into programming the Library can deliver well.

Working under the direction of the Youth Development Manager, the Supervisor identifies and cultivates partnerships with youth-serving organizations to expand Library offerings and engages in direct service with youth patrons. The Supervisor also builds and supports a team of part-time staff who deliver afterschool programming at locations throughout the system, setting expectations, coaching in the moment, and creating a team culture where part-time staff feel prepared and connected to the larger work.

Success in this role looks like strong relationships outside the building, programming that reflects the priorities in the Library's strategic plan, and a part-time team that delivers consistently across every location it serves.

Community Engagement and Needs Assessment: You will be the Library's presence in the community for after school work, and you will bring back what you learn

• Build and maintain relationships with youth, families, and neighborhood organizations in the areas our branches serve.
• Assess community needs through direct conversation, observation, school and district contacts, participation data, and available community data.
• Identify gaps in afterschool access across the city and recommend where the Library is best positioned to help.
• Represent the Library at community meetings, school events, coalitions, and youth-serving networks.
• Incorporate youth and community voice into program design, including input from students themselves about what they want after school.

• Identify potential partners whose work benefits students, and work with the Youth Development Manager to evaluate fit against Library priorities and capacity.
• Cultivate partnerships with local organizations and groups, with support from the Youth Development Manager.
• Serve as the day-to-day contact for after school partners and keep those relationships healthy over time.
• Track partnership activity and outcomes, and recommend when to grow, adjust, or end a partnership.
• Coordinate with Marketing and Communications so partner programming is promoted well and reaches the intended students.

Programming and Strategic Alignment: You will design and deliver after school programming that advances the Library's strategic priorities

• Plan and deliver a coherent slate of afterschool programming across the system, grounded in community need and strategic plan priorities.

• Pilot new approaches, evaluate honestly what worked, and share learning across the system.
• Work with Public Services managers to align programming with each location's space, schedule, and audience.

Team Leadership and Development: You will build and support a team of part-time after school staff working throughout the system

• Build and manage staff schedules across locations so programming is reliably covered.
• Create a connected team culture for staff who work at different sites and on varied schedules, including regular team meetings and shared training.

• Coordinate with People and Culture on hiring, performance, onboarding, and engagement, and apply expectations from Library policy and the employee handbook consistently.

• Partner with Safety, Social Services, and Public Services teams to respond to incidents and support students in need.
