Join the Professional Development Unit as a Senior Administrator and play a key role in supporting the delivery of professional skills, vocational training and work-based learning activities across the University.

The role provides professional administrative support with a particular focus on governance, compliance, quality assurance and operational processes, helping to ensure services are delivered efficiently, effectively and in line with regulatory and organisational requirements.

This is a varied and rewarding position where no two days are the same. You will coordinate operational activities, support meetings and events, maintain records and documentation, prepare reports, contribute to audits and assurance activities, and work closely with colleagues and external partners to support high-quality service delivery.

We're looking for someone who can demonstrate:
- Experience of working in an administrative or operational support role.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities.
- Experience of working effectively with a range of stakeholders.
- Confidence using Microsoft Office applications and information management systems.

In return, we offer:
- A hybrid working arrangement with a blend of home and campus working.
- Generous holiday entitlement of 27 days per year (rising to 30 days after five years' service), plus bank holidays and University closure days.
- Access to reward and recognition schemes.
- Ongoing training, development and career progression opportunities.
- A wide range of staff benefits including fitness and health facilities, staff discounts, travel schemes and much more.
