Responsibilities

  • This is a hands-on role where accuracy, organisation, and initiative are key:
  • Acting as a first point of contact for students, staff, and lecturers—providing timely, professional support.
  • Coordinating teaching and timetabling support, including arranging cover and maintaining clear communications.
  • Supporting student lifecycle processes, including inductions, timetables, assessments, and results.
  • Managing assessment administration, ensuring submission links, marking processes, and feedback are accurate and delivered on time.
  • Maintaining and updating student records and programme data systems with a high level of accuracy.
  • Supporting exam boards, reporting, and data analysis, including collating attendance and performance data.
  • Managing programme documentation and Share Point folders, ensuring version control and accessibility.
  • Supporting academic staff onboarding, including inductions, documentation, and system access.
  • Processing HPL invoices and liaising with finance teams.
  • Working collaboratively with teams such as Registry, timetabling, and the Student Hub to ensure a seamless student experience.

About You

You’ll be detail-driven, adaptable, and confident working in a busy academic environment.

We’re particularly interested in candidates who have

  • Excellent organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet tight deadlines.
  • Strong IT skills, including MS Office and data systems.
  • The ability to interpret and apply processes, policies, and complex information accurately.
  • Excellent communication skills, with the confidence to engage effectively with students and staff at all levels.
