Academic Services Team Leader

Full-time, fixed term

Leeds Business School is seeking an enthusiastic and proactive Academic Services Team Leader to join our team. This hybrid role is based partly at our City Campus and partly from home.

Managing our undergraduate student administration team, you will lead the day-to-day operations of the team ensuring delivery of excellent on-course support for students throughout their student journey. You will be working closely with academic colleagues, especially Course Directors and Heads of Subject, to ensure that they receive appropriate administrative support.

This is a varied role that combines analytical, administrative, line-management and student-facing responsibilities. You will be confident managing staff with empathy, working with data, maintaining accurate records and using insight to guide your work, while also building positive relationships with your team, school colleagues and the wider university regular communication and support.

We are looking for someone who is organised, proactive and approachable, with excellent communication skills and a commitment to supporting our diverse student community and staff colleagues through a focus on continuous improvement.

Leeds Beckett is committed to creating and maintaining a safe, welcoming and inclusive community that nurtures a culture of respect and consideration for all. We encourage applications from people from all backgrounds and aim to have a workforce that reflects the diversity of our student body and the wider society we serve.
