It is seeking to recruit a Global Student & Partnership Centre Officer to assist with the running of short programmes, international student events and international student queries. The post holder will contribute to face-to-face student support and may occasionally have the opportunity to represent the University overseas.

The post holder will be a full member of the Centre and will be required to take responsibility for designed areas of activities, under the supervision of the Dean of Global Engagement or the Global Student & Partnership Centre Coordinator.

We are seeking someone who has international experience or has worked with international students or customers, as we believe that an interest in other countries or cultures will best allow you to undertake the role. Candidates should be familiar with the international student process and the steps it takes for them to study in the UK.

The post holder will be required to engage and enthuse applicants, students, partners and others, particularly from other countries, often being the front-face of the Centre to welcome international students and visitors. 

Excellent organisational skills and communication skills are required, as well as an ability to empathise with students and partners from different countries and cultures. Candidates should have experience of study, volunteering, work or travel overseas face-to-face or virtual experiences. The ability to work under pressure and as a team player is an essential requirement of this post. The post holder will be required to work flexibly and be able to show personal initiative and judgement. Candidates should have knowledge of student support activities.

This post is a 12-month fixed term appointment.
