Our four strategic global partnerships offer Lancaster degrees in China, Germany, Ghana and Malaysia. The vision for these partnerships is to offer a full university experience across teaching, research and engagement. 

The university places great emphasis on a strong student experience: students coming to Lancaster broaden their horizons, learn new subjects, find new perspectives and discover new experiences as part of a community that reaches around the world.  

The Role

You will be highly user focused and able to demonstrate a track record of delivery. You will bring experience of project / programme management and business process improvement which you will use to develop our systems as we look to streamline the mobility and student funding processes across the university.

The Global Experiences team are responsible for student mobility at Lancaster University, including: 

  • Study Abroad 
  • Credit-bearing summer schools 
  • Short programmes overseas 
  • Internationalisation and digital projects 
  • Mobility funding 

It is a very busy team with a wide range of activity across the year. We have experienced a regularly changing landscape in recent years with Brexit, Turing funding and Covid, which drives us to be innovative and responsive to the many changes that have impacted student mobility. 

What we are looking for 

We are keen to find an enthusiastic and proactive role model; someone who has a positive ‘can do’ attitude and can bring people alongside them in a busy and complex environment. You will have experience of delivering significant programmes of activity working in collaboration with others.
