With previous experience of working in a busy office environment, you will be able to demonstrate excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to provide accurate and comprehensive information to both students and staff members.  You will have experience of working in and contributing to a diverse team, managing a complex workload independently and have a high-level of attention to detail. You will also have experience of, and aptitude for, working with Microsoft Office and Google software. You must be able to motivate, organise and provide guidance to develop the skills of others and be able to deputise for the Student Experience Manager as appropriate.
