Lead for Quality and Compliance (Academic Partnerships) - London-based

It is an exciting time to work at the University of Greater Manchester where we are proud of our growing reputation as a student-focused institution, underpinned by our vision of Teaching Intensive, Research Informed, Assessment Enabled Learning. Are you interested in developing a career in partnership working? Do you see yourself as someone who can work hard to complete day to day tasks whilst keeping an eye on contributing to the growth of a vibrant Division?

The Off Campus Division of the University of Greater Manchester manages the partnership work of our growing University. As the University rises in the UK HE rankings, the Off Campus Division makes sure that students who study UoGM qualifications at one of our valued UK or International partner institutions receive an equivalent quality of educational experience. Our success in developing quality-driven partnerships means that we are expanding, bringing in new team members to support our increasing range of activities.

You will be a seasoned academic with significant experience of delivering and managing academic quality. You will have expertise in academic oversight and quality monitoring systems and process strong applied knowledge of the Office for Students Conditions of Registration. You will be enthused by the idea of a dynamic work environment and be excited by the challenges of diversity and finding common ground. With a strong understanding of academic regulations, you will have demonstrable applied experience of working with academic collaborative provision partnerships and/ or TNE. You will be super-organised, hard-working, digitally literate with great communication skills, ready to roll up your sleeves to tackle tasks – from making the tea (we all do it!) to talking to Senior Managers in large organisations. You must be intuitive, self-aware and approach challenges with a sense of humour, determination, integrity and authenticity. In return, we can offer an immersive experience in HE systems and processes, staff development, involvement in research projects and initiatives and of course, training will be given.

UK or international travel may form part of your workload and we may need flexibility from you – this is not a strict 9-5 job, but we can promise that no two days are the same and the team that you will be part of will be working with you to develop you and the Division.

If you think you may be who we are looking for, download the detailed job specification from the link to the left and send a CV and covering letter to jobs@greatermanchester.ac.uk telling us how you meet the role requirements and what you have been doing that shows you are interested in Higher Education, global themes, hard work and being part of a great team.
