The Role

As Associate Dean of Student Journey you will lead the student experience across the College, shaping and overseeing all wraparound academic and engagement support services to deliver an outstanding student experience that enhances learning, nurtures creativity, and helps students to develop as learners throughout their studies.

You will manage student-facing teams, champion the student voice, and work hand-in-hand with students and the Students’ Union to build a vibrant, responsive college community.

Through smart planning and collaboration, you will align college initiatives with university-wide goals and be the go-to expert on student success, using data, sector insight and innovation to continuously raise the bar.
