Senior School Administrator, Business School (BUS227A)
This is a rare opportunity to step into a role at the centre of a fast-growing and strategically important area of the Business School’s activity.
Job Description
You will play a key role in the development and delivery of our growing Transnational Education (TNE) and international partnerships, working across academic and professional teams to ensure programmes delivered with global partners operate effectively and meet University and accreditation standards.
The Business School holds EQUIS accreditation, an internationally recognised mark of quality held by around 230 of the 16,000 business schools worldwide and is continuing to expand its international portfolio. This role offers direct exposure to the systems, processes, and decisions that underpin that growth.
You will be trusted to work with a high degree of autonomy, coordinating complex activity, resolving issues, and ensuring delivery at scale. As partnerships grow, the role will evolve, offering increasing scope to shape processes and influence how this area develops.
This is a substantive role offering an excellent platform to build a career in higher education operations, international partnerships, or quality assurance. It offers a level of visibility, access, and hands-on experience that is rarely available at this stage.
Salary will be at the appropriate point on Grade 6, £38,784 - £46,049 per annum with placement according to qualifications and experience.
Informal enquiries should be made to Dr Philip Jenkins-Walsh, Head of Administration
