The Role
We are looking to recruit an Assistant Academic Registrar to provide effective management of one or more areas within the Programme Administration function of the Academic Registry.
This role will function as part of a small team, under the leadership of the Head of Programme Administration, who oversee the operational functions within Programme Administration. This includes management of teams who manage on-campus, placement and partnership provision.
This is a challenging but rewarding role in a fast paced environment.
The Team
Programme Administration is a centralised team with two distinct areas; the Programme Admin team manages assessment processes and the student academic record for both on-campus students and those at our international partners. The Placement Admin team administers mandatory placements for Health and Education provision.
The Person
We are looking for someone with a background in the management and delivery of academic administration within Higher Education and will have drive and enthusiasm for working in this environment.
We are looking for someone who has an innovative approach to problem solving, strives to deliver an exceptional service and who can contribute to our commitment to continuous improvement.
The Offer
As well as a competitive salary, you will join an inclusive and supportive culture based across two campuses. We work within a generous agile working policy; requiring you to work 60% of your time on campus and the remainder from home.
We offer a large range of benefits including a generous pension scheme, health cash plan, discounts on bus and rail fare as well as car hire.
For those candidates with family, our maternity, paternity, shared parental leave and adoption policies offer enhanced pay. We also have a ‘Good’ ofsted rated on-site nursery available to pay via salary deduction and salary sacrifice.
Our on-site gym within City Space, gives our staff the opportunity to benefit from discounted rates and use of the latest equipment and classes.
Finally, we also have an amazing selection of staff networks which support staff in various areas; LGBTQ+, Family, Women, Disability, BAME, Carers and more. They are chaired and facilitated by staff and are both a supportive mechanism and platform for change within the University. The University recently implemented the Family network proposal for additional paid leave for parents of Neonatal/Premature babies.
