Customer Service Officers (CSOs) lead the front-line teams in Kent's town centre and branch libraries. They make sure the needs of customers are met and the day-to-day business is delivered to the highest standards.

The registration aspect of the CSO role requires a sensitive approach to customer service, as well as good accuracy to ensure information is recorded in line with legal requirements.
The successful person will be a great people manager, who can be resilient when dealing with day-to-day operational challenges and enjoy meeting and working with a wide range of people.
The role also offers a wide range of development opportunities, both within Libraries, Registration & Archives and wider parts of KCC.
We provide a broad range of training courses to develop our colleagues and also help them progress in their skills and careers.
