There's a lot that makes us different than other companies. We foster a healthy work/life balance, encourage collaboration and hire talented people from diverse backgrounds. Our average employee tenure is over 11 years and we offer a great environment where we work hard and have fun along the way. 

We believe that access to information is a right, not a privilege and that access is crucial to the success of individuals and communities everywhere. Libraries help all of us thrive - if you'd like to play a role in that, we'd love to hear from you. 

The Role 

As a Library Software Trainer & Consultant, you will discuss the benefits of software with customers, implement solutions and deliver training to ensure customers fully benefit from product features. 

In this key role, you will:

- Software training experience, ideally with experience of library automation software 
- The ability to instruct large groups using web-based meeting software, such as WebEx 
- The ability to work well, both with customers and team members 
- A bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent 

Ideally, you'll have previous experience of working with SirsiDynix products, but this isn't essential. A Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) degree would also be an advantage.
