Description

Further to a reorganisation of Professional Services roles in the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, we are seeking three highly efficient and capable administrators to become members of the academic administration team in the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.

These posts provide an excellent opportunity to develop a career in University administration.

The Academic Administrator (Year 5 / GE3) will have primary responsibility for organising the Educational Supervisors' programme. All Clinical Medicine students are allocated to a senior clinician who meets them termly, providing longitudinal educational support.

The post holder will assist with the annual recruitment of supervisors, send reminders of key dates, organise induction and training for supervisors, allocate students, organise payment, and act as a point of contact for supervisors and students.


The post holder will also assist the Senior Academic Administrator (Year 5 / GE3) with the administration of the second year (Year 5) of the Clinical Medicine programme, which is shared with Year 3 of the Graduate-entry Medicine programme.

This will include allocating students to groups for specialty rotations, monitoring the progression of students, and organising clinical examinations (OSCEs) and computer-based examinations.

They will also assist with the arrangements for medical students from overseas undertaking their 'elective' placements in Oxford.


There are approximately students in each of the three years of the Clinical Medicine course, and 35-40 students on each year of the Graduate-entry Medicine programme.

Teaching and examining is provided by a large number of academic and/or clinical staff, drawn from clinical and non-clinical departments across the Medical Sciences Division.

Students also attend clinical placements in partner NHS Trusts, and in primary care settings.

As the responsibility for teaching and examining is shared across multiple University departments, as well as the partner NHS organisations, the organisation of the course is complex.

As an employer, we genuinely care about our employees' wellbeing and this is reflected in the range of benefits that we offer including:

  • Employee Assistant Programme (EAP)
  • An excellent contributory pension scheme
  • 38 days annual leave
  • A comprehensive range of childcare services
  • Family leave schemes
  • Cycle loan scheme
  • Discounted bus travel and Season Ticket travel loans


This is a permanent, part-time post, based at the (Clinical) Medical School Office, Academic Centre, Level 2, John Radcliffe Hospital.

You will be required to work mostly on site (with occasional remote working or up to 20% regular remote working).
