Administrator (Staffing Service)

Durham University’s Temporary Staffing Service (TSS) is an internal, pan-university team established to provide reliable, professional administrative support to academic departments and faculties (including other service areas when needed) with fixed-term resource needs such as recruitment gaps, staff absence, peaks in workload, etc. The postholder will form part of a friendly, diverse team and will be deployed (sometimes fractionally) on short-term placements across service areas to work closely and collaboratively with local teams to cover specified administrative roles, duties, and projects commensurate with the grade to ensure high-quality educational, operational, and research services are delivered. Placements are typically 6-12 weeks in length (subject to business need) and can include, but are not limited to, fulfilling roles such as Learning and Teaching Administrator, Operations Adminis trator, and Faculty Administrator. Although the team is based in the Social Sciences Faculty Office for line management purposes, the postholder can expect to be allocated to departments/faculties across the institution.
