Background of department/role
The post holder will act as Assistant to the Pro Vice-Chancellor (Education and Student Experience) and Executive Director of Academic & Student Services and Registrar.

You will be educated to A Level standard or equivalent with experience of providing support to senior members of staff. You will have well developed skills in Microsoft Office programmes (Word, Excel, Outlook) and be able to demonstrate working in a busy office.
