About the role

You will provide administrative support for the undergraduate and postgraduate taught courses in the Faculty, including assessment processes, maintaining student records & responding to enquiries from academic colleagues and students.

Under the direction of the Taught Programmes Manager and Programmes Officers, you will support Programmes Administrators by working within shared, best-practice systems & processes, in compliance with University regulations & procedures, to ensure that services remain efficient, effective, and responsive to changing needs.
