Academic Programmes and Quality Adviser

Are you interested in working for a world top 100 University? We have an exciting new opportunity in the Academic Programmes Office for someone with experience of quality assurance in higher education to join our team. 

We’re looking for someone who has a strong focus on building highly productive relationships with internal stakeholders, and who is able to draw on their expertise and judgement to provide quality advice to help colleagues manage their portfolio of academic programmes. You’ll have a good understanding of how academic programmes are structured in a higher education environment, the operational and quality assurance processes that support this, and experience of supporting high quality processes and services. 

You will have excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to present complex information and advice in a clear and accessible format to a wide group of stakeholders.  You will be educated to degree level or have equivalent experience. 

This post provides an exciting opportunity to provide key services to academic departments, to be central to the quality assurance of the University’s taught provision and to be involved in delivering the Education Pillar of the University’s vision.  

We are committed to exploring flexible working opportunities which benefit the individual and University. 

We’re one of the best not-for-profit organisations to work for in the UK. The University’s Total Reward Package includes a competitive salary, a generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement, as well as access to a range of learning and development courses to support your personal and professional development. 

We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
