OXFORD UNIVERSITY LIBRARY SERVICES
PROJECT MANAGER
LIBRARY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PROCUREMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION
Academic-Related Grade 4: GBP 30,660 - GBP 36,712 (pay award pending)
(Fixed term 3-year post)
This is an exciting opportunity to manage the procurement and
implementation of a new library management system within Oxford
University's complex library and information environment.
You will be responsible for producing a specification for the new
system. The initial phase of the project will also include tendering,
evaluation and procurement. This will be followed by system
installation, configuration, data migration, training, and
documentation. It is expected that the new system will interoperate in
an integrated manner with the University's new Virtual Learning
Environment and administrative systems.
You will have proven experience of successfully managing a similar
large scale project in a complex environment and should be able to
demonstrate a thorough understanding of IT in a modern setting. Good
analytical and problem-solving skills and the ability to motivate and
lead a project team effectively are essential. Knowledge of automated
library operations is desirable. In return for flexibility, personal
commitment and competence we offer the benefits of working for the
University of Oxford which include generous holiday entitlement,
flexible working, support with relocation, use of university
facilities, and access to development opportunities.
