people, place and partnership at our heart. Now is a very exciting time to be joining us because we are delivering a new "Towards 2030" strategic plan focused on making the most of our three most valuable assets; People, Place and Partnerships , to become a catalyst for economic well-being for our region, nationally and internationally. In this role, you will be part of a team of professionals who work across a number of campuses to manage, co-ordinate and deliver interventions and events, both on and off campus, with learners from schools, colleges, other education providers and from within the community to increase the number of leads and applications to the University, contributing to the ‘Towards 2030’ strategy and Access and Participation Plan targets. You will be organised, pro-active and driven with a proven ability to work in a high energy, team focused environment with targets to meet. Previous experience of delivering student recruitment activities, marketing or educational guidance would be an advantage and is preferred. Our work is regional and national, therefore significant travel will be expected of the post holder and there is a requirement to be flexible with working patterns, due to overnight trips and the requirement to work between our campuses at events and in various Schools and Colleges.
