Student Data and Systems Assistant (Points Based System)

About this role

We are looking to recruit an experienced administrator to assist the Points Based System (PBS) team.

The key tasks include performing right to study checks via student appointments, responding to student emails, and providing administrative support to the PBS team.

The PBS team is responsible for the University’s compliance with its Student Visa sponsor duties. The main features of this are reporting information to the Home Office, maintaining accurate student immigration documentation and issuing CASs to students for them to apply for visa extensions.

The Student Data and Systems (SDS) service supports learning and teaching at UWE and helps enhance the student experience.  

The SDS community works together to join up our various business and system areas so that we do not work in siloes but contribute to a “Team UWE” approach to stewarding our student data.
