Massey University’s Libraries offer physical and virtual environments that provide access to scholarly resources, anywhere, anytime. We are seeking an experienced, customer-focused Library Assistant to join the vibrant and innovative Manawatū Campus Library, for a permanent part-time role.

The successful applicant will join the team responsible for providing library services and answering enquiries from internal and distance clients. Applicants will be expected to demonstrate:

• Strong customer service orientation.
• Accuracy and attention to detail.
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Ability to work well both independently and in a team environment.
• Good digital literacy skills.
• Legal entitlement to commit to a part-time permanent role in New Zealand.

The position is for 10 hours per week during the academic year.  The successful applicant must have the ability to commit to the following shifts:

One 2 hour day shift; one 4 hour night shift; one 4 hour weekend shift

The ability to be flexible with working hours and to swap shifts is critical to maintaining client services. As this role involves shift work, including evening and weekend shifts, transport to and from work is the employee’s responsibility.  These positions will include working on statutory or University holidays if the normal working day falls on a statutory or University holiday, unless the Library is closed on those days; the actual hours worked on this day may vary.

If you are seeking an opportunity to work in a progressive and supportive environment apply now!
