The Head of Research Services will take a key role in this process, by engaging with the global research (infrastructure) environment to identify opportunities for the British Library to add value. Leading a team of research services experts, the post holder will scope and plan new services and service enhancements and work with technology providers (vendors, partners and British Library IT services) to implement them.
