About Anglia Ruskin University:

Our vibrant, modern University has ambitious plans for its future. Our two main campuses in Cambridge and Chelmsford are being transformed with major capital investments. With an annual income of £145m, over 30,000 students and 2,000 staff, we are a major force for higher education in the East of England.

About the role:

Our International Office is focussed on obtaining substantial growth in international student numbers. The provision of key recruitment communications with our prospective international students and other stakeholders forms an integral part of our strategy in achieving this.

We are looking for a team member to work closely with our Regional Directors and other members of the International Recruitment team. You will have operational responsibility for providing dynamic, effective and timely web and print based marketing communications services. We want to provide clear and relevant messages to our international students that will enable them to successfully navigate their journey from enquiry to enrolment.

With a degree you will have experience of developing innovative international marketing communications strategies (both print and online) and their implementation, preferably within the HE Sector. IT literate with a sound knowledge of Microsoft Office, you will be customer focussed and have highly developed copywriting and interpersonal skills. You must be able to organise and prioritise your own workload, work to tight deadlines and build successful working relationships. With an awareness of current issues affecting international students, you will have an excellent public relations manner. A formal marketing qualification (e.g. CIM Professional Diploma in Marketing) is desirable.

We value diversity at Anglia Ruskin University and welcome applications from all sections of the community.
