Global Projects Support Officer

This is a fantastic opportunity for a skilled project support professional to bring your skills into a global and creative setting at University of the Arts London (UAL).

As Global Projects Support Officer, you’ll play a central role in delivering our Global Engagement Strategy, which builds international partnerships, develops Creative Hubs in priority regions, and ensures our work reflects UAL’s values of creativity, inclusivity and sustainability.

Your focus will be on keeping projects running smoothly and ensuring their impact is clearly demonstrated. From preparing documentation and briefing papers to coordinating meetings, events and delegations, you’ll manage the details that make international projects successful. You’ll also produce reports that capture outcomes, track progress and highlight the wider impact of UAL’s global engagement. Alongside the practicalities of delivery, you’ll contribute ideas, raise awareness of our international activities across the University, and help shape how UAL builds lasting global connections.

This role offers a rare opportunity to gain exposure to senior leaders, international collaborators and strategic initiatives, while further developing your skills in project management, research, events and relationship building. If you’re looking to take the next step in your career and want to do so in an international, creative environment, this role will give you the platform to do just that.

About you

You’re already experienced in supporting projects, ideally with an international or higher education dimension. You enjoy keeping projects on track, thrive on variety, and have the confidence to manage competing priorities calmly and effectively.

You’re a natural communicator who can quickly build trust with colleagues and partners, adapting your style to different cultures and contexts. You’re just as comfortable producing clear reports and documentation as you are coordinating events or ensuring senior colleagues are well prepared for important meetings.

Educated to degree level, you will be comfortable using Office 365 and digital systems, and capable of producing clear, accurate reports. Above all, you’re proactive, collaborative and motivated by the opportunity to make a difference, helping UAL strengthen its international partnerships and deliver projects that have real impact.
