全职 Centre Manager 工作, 薪水, Tinkermind 公司招聘中 - Ricebowl

Description

You are a Maker. You are a jack-of-many-trades and master of few. You go head-first into problems that you do not know the answers to. You crave discovery to sate your curiosity. Most importantly, you want to share your experiences with others and serve as the face of our public makerspaces. These learning environments can be found in schools, libraries and other educational facilities.

As a Centre Manager, you lead through example and relish taking on new responsibilities. You want the best experience for patrons visiting your space. You delegate tasks when needed, but take initiative when necessary.

At the same time, you have the discipline required to see to the administrative responsibility of operating a maker space, including programme scheduling, user access, procurement of materials and most importantly, safety training and handling of all tools and equipment. You relish taking on new responsibilities as you want the best experience for the users in your makerspace. You work well within a system and if a part of it does not work, you are not afraid to make suggestions on how to fix it.
