Subject: VACANCY: DOCUSEND PROJECT MANAGER

With apologies for cross-postings.


DOCUSEND PROJECT MANAGER

Docusend (http://www.docusend.ac.uk) is a national three-year project 
which began in May 2002 and is funded by the Joint Information Systems 
Committee (JISC). The key project objective is to develop a journal 
article request and delivery broker service. The Docusend partners 
include the ten university libraries which comprise the Lamda 
electronic document delivery service (http://lamdaweb.mcc.ac.uk), with 
King's College London as the lead site. Docusend is part of the JOIN-UP
project cluster  (http://edina.ed.ac.uk/projects/joinup/) which 
consists of two further JISC 5/99 projects hosted at EDINA and the 
BL/MIMAS Zetoc development and works to encourage the production of 
separate but interoperable services.

The Consortium is now seeking to appoint a project manager for the 
final eighteen months of the project. The post-holder will ideally be 
based at the Joule Library, UMIST in Manchester (although applications 
can be considered from candidates able to be based in one of the Lamda 
partner institutions in London, Leeds or Birmingham by mutual 
agreement). Applications from candidates seeking secondment to this 
post will be welcomed.

The responsibilities will involve the day-to-day management and 
implementation of the project, including the provision of input and 
advice for the strategic development of Docusend on issues such as 
customer base and content supply development. Liaison with the other 
JOIN-UP partners and the user community will also be important elements
of the job. Applicants should be educated to degree level and have 
experience of project management together with excellent communication 
and liaison skills. Knowledge of document delivery and/or the 
publishing industry would also be advantageous.

Salary will be circa £28,498 to £33,679 (ALC3) depending on skills and 
experience. (In the case of an exceptionally qualified candidate 
appointment on ALC4 will be considered.) Holidays will be 25 per year, 
plus public holidays. Informal enquiries should be made to Ms Anne 
Bell, Director of Information Resources & Services at King's College 
London and Docusend Project Director, email [log in to unmask]

Secretariat, Kings College London, 1 SEB, Strand Campus, Strand,

2003. It is expected that interviews will be held on 14 February 2003.
