Student Engagement Administrator

The opportunity 

University of the Arts London (UAL) has an exciting opportunity for a customer-focused administrator to support the delivery of our Study Abroad and Preparation Programmes (SAPP).

As part of our Academic Enterprise (AE), SAPP offers specialist education courses for the international market, including pre-degree courses and study abroad opportunities.

As a Student Engagement Administrator, you will be responsible for administering the programmes attended by SAPP students. This will involve:

• Administering the SAPP application and enrolment process, providing advice, guidance and encouragement
• Supporting marketing and conversion activities to increase enrolment
• Liaising with students, course tutors and other key College/University contacts
• Liaising with external international partners who support the recruitment of students for SAPP courses
• Assisting with the organisation of events

You will have a primary area of responsibility for Study Abroad courses, but you must be able to work on all areas of SAPP. Whilst this is a hybrid working role, at peak enrolment times you might be required to work at different sites and occasionally during the evenings to support events.

About you

We are looking for a hard-working individual with a strong customer focus, who possesses previous experience of student or customer records administration and delivering student advice within an academic environment.
