BASIS Administrator

We are a world class research-intensive university. We deliver teaching and learning of the highest quality. We play a leading role in economic, social and cultural development of the North East of England. Attracting and retaining high-calibre people is fundamental to our continued success.

The Role
Over the last 18 months, we have reimagined the way we deliver our University IT Services, building a world-class IT department responsive to the needs of our global community. We're growing significantly and we've created new opportunities and made changes to how we work. Our people have been at the centre of this change, with a particular focus on development and opportunities to learn new skills.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a SAP BASIS Administrator to join an established team supporting a variety of SAP systems at Newcastle University. Part of a £25m a year IT department, the SAP BASIS team work on systems affecting all areas of university life. These systems support key university processes such as student lifecycle management, financial management, expense management, HR and payroll. This gives us an incredibly diverse range of users and we work with many stakeholders from across the organisation. We use a wide variety of technologies but regardless of the tools used we want to provide the best possible experience to our users so a strong focus on collaborative and agile working is every bit as important as the specific technical skills you bring.

The University is an exciting and dynamic place to work, dedicated to world-leading education and research. Benefits include excellent pension; flexible working options; a minimum of 37 days holiday (including public holidays); discounted travel for the Metro and local bus services; and discounts for national retailers. You can find out more on our benefits web page.

We are committed to building and maintaining a fair and inclusive working environment and we would be happy to discuss arrangements for flexible and/or blended working.

Informal enquiries can be made to Steve Cumpson, SAP BASIS Manager at Steve.Cumpson@newcastle.ac.uk or Gary Atkinson, Head of Infrastructure, Gary.Atkinson@newcastle.ac.uk.
