Evidence of well-developed administration skills, preferably in an HE environment, and a high level of IT literacy will be required, as will the ability to work with a high degree of accuracy and attention to detail.

You will be at ease working in a changing environment, being able to demonstrate flexibility to be involved in a number of operational support activities at a time of changing landscape in HE provision.


The role is a student facing post with the possibility of some hybrid working outside of term time, depending on business needs.

Some flexibility in working hours may be required on rare occasions (with advance notice).
