Within the role of Deputy Head of Wellbeing and Disabilities we are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced complex case manager to join our vibrant Wellbeing team, working alongside our Disabilities and Dyslexia team, within the Directorate of Student Support & Success. The department supports student retention, achievement, and satisfaction by providing a range of services to enhance student wellbeing and ensure that all students have access to a range of support appropriate to their needs.
