Join our team at PAE Libraries as a Customer Experience Coordinator.

This is a permanent full-time role.

About Us 

At the City of Port Adelaide Enfield (PAE), we’re building a welcoming, liveable city, made by people.

Our focus is on community, our economy, environmental sustainability and building high-quality places for people to enjoy. We’re on an ambitious trajectory, but our organisation is up for the challenge.

At PAE, we’re involved in all sorts of things - major construction through to environmental management, organising events, social infrastructure planning, and library services. We are proud of offering a wide range of accessible services and programs to our community.

For you, this means the opportunity to lead customer experience at Enfield Library, guide and support a dedicated team, and contribute to library services that help people connect, learn and participate in community life.

Now’s a great time to be part of PAE.

About the Role 

This is a customer-focused leadership role that coordinates and supports library staff to deliver operational requirements and provide great service to our community.

  • Lead, coach and support Library Officers, the Home Library Officer, staff and volunteers to deliver welcoming, inclusive and best-practice customer service.
  • Oversee library facilities, meeting rooms, workplace inspections and contractor activity to help maintain safe, accessible and well-presented spaces.
  • Provide guidance and escalation support for complex customer matters, including behaviour management, while promoting respectful and positive interactions.

About You

You will bring a confident, authentic and people-focused leadership style, with the ability to build trust, support others to succeed and create a positive team culture. You are a clear communicator and active listener who can bring empathy, resilience and sound judgement to a busy, customer-focused library environment. With experience supervising or coordinating staff, volunteers or teams, you are comfortable setting priorities, guiding others through day-to-day operations and working respectfully with diverse communities and stakeholders. You will also bring relevant library and information management knowledge, supported by a degree qualification in Library and Information Management or demonstrated equivalent experience, together with a current Working with Children Check and Child Safe Environments certification.
