An opportunity has arisen to join the Academic Registry as a Senior Administrator in the Student Journey Team. The main function of the Student Journey Team is to provide professional services to applicants, current students and staff in Schools and other Units.

Registry is a key central administrative unit of the University supporting Schools, students, senior management and external stake-holders through admissions, the administration of student records, curriculum and timetabling records and the provision of associated reporting.  Members of staff are required to work flexibly and provide support across the Unit according to the priorities of the academic cycle. The Unit actively supports the University’s strategy of improving the effectiveness and integration of administrative processes with various projects and cross-unit functions.

We are seeking a highly motivated and organised individual with a commitment to excellent customer service to work in the postgraduate research (PGR) sub-team. You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills and a flexible approach.  The role focuses on the co-ordination, delivery and development of services relating to postgraduate records, processes and customer experience from application to graduation. Each member of the PGR team is the first point of contact for a set of academic Schools. You will work closely with colleagues in Admissions, Student Services, the Proctor’s Office, the Director of the Graduate School, Schools, Finance, and colleagues across Registry, to ensure that we provide a first-rate and integrated service.
