Job Vacancy - Saturdays

Kelly Lensen from Karori Community Toy Library

The Karori Toy Library is looking for an Assistant Librarian to run its Saturday sessions.

The Assistant Librarian will be required to work every Saturday from 8.45am to 12.15pm during school terms, with flexibility occasionally to relieve for the Principal Librarian during other sessions and to attend ad hoc sessions e.g. the annual stocktake

The Assistant Librarian issues toys and processes returns, signs up new members, handles fees and fines, instructs and oversees the work of member volunteers, and maintains the toy collection and library in clean and working condition.

For this role, we are looking for someone who is honest, reliable, able to work independently and good with people, including in difficult situations. You will need some basic computer skills but all other training will be provided.

Previous cash-handling experience and ability to use Excel will be advantageous.

You must have the legal right to work in New Zealand.

If you are interested, please send a cover letter and your CV, or any questions to karoritoylibraryjob@gmail.com.
