PLEASE NOTE: This is an internal advert and is open to current Oxford Brookes University staff only.

Are you interested in working in the Vice-Chancellor's Office supporting the senior committees of a University, where hybrid working is available? You will be joining a friendly and collaborative group of experienced colleagues, all of whom are looking forward to supporting you in being a success in the role.

We are looking to appoint a Governance Officer, initially on a full-time, six- month secondment, to provide high quality, professional administrative support to the Head of Secretariat.

If you intend to apply for this secondment it is recommended that you discuss this with your line manager before applying for the role.

Reporting directly to the Head of Secretariat, the post holder will undertake a range of administrative duties as well as servicing the Board, its senior sub-committees and the Vice-Chancellor's Group (VCG). The role is a key point of contact and source of advice and guidance for colleagues across the University and Governors and external representatives who sit on the Board and Senior Committees.

The role provides scope for wider development, including project planning and implementation.

You will have:

  • Excellent organisational and time management skills
  • Excellent IT skills
  • Good written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to balance competing priorities and meet set deadlines
  • Proactive approach and good attention to detail
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a team
  • Experience of servicing committees / meetings
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment
  • Ability to respond to non-routine situations independently.
  • Flexible Working:

    The VCO Secretariat is based in the Vice-Chancellor's Office (VCO). This position offers the opportunity to work on a hybrid basis. The nature of the role requires attendance in the office for in-person VCG, Board and Senior Committee meetings and any other meetings and/or events that may require working from the VCO. The remainder of the time will be working from home.

    If you would like an informal discussion about this opportunity, please contact Maria Crawford, Head of Secretariat, at [email protected]
