Admissions Administrator

Job description

External Engagement Communications & Global (EEG)

This full time post is available on a permanent basis.

This role offers the opportunity for hybrid working – some time on campus and some from home. The expectation that you would come into the office on campus a minimum of 2 days per week.

About the role

We are seeking to appoint a highly organised, experienced administrator to join a very busy and dynamic Admissions Office, delivering a central service to support the University's Faculties in meeting their targets, to recruit the best qualified students to the University.

To be successful in this role, you will:

have good organisational and administrative skills

be able to work flexibly under pressure and to tight deadlines

have previous experience of delivering excellent customer services

Ideally, we would prefer someone who has experience of using a large database system, especially for data entry, and the ability to follow complex sets of procedures

demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills to communicate effectively with colleagues and applicants.

An understanding of admissions processes, with some knowledge of either UK or international qualifications would be an advantage. However, full training will be provided to suitable applicants who do not have a background in Admissions.

Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Commitment

We are committed to ensuring reasonable adjustments are available for interviews and workplaces.

Whilst all applicants will be judged on merit alone, we particularly welcome applications from groups currently underrepresented within our working community.

With over 30,000 students and 7,000 staff from 150 different countries we offer a diverse and engaging environment where our diversity is celebrated and valued as a major strength. We are committed to creating an inclusive culture where all members of our community are supported to thrive; where diverse voices are heard through our engagement with evidence-based charter frameworks for gender (Athena SWAN and Project Juno for Physics), race equality (Race Equality Charter Mark), LGBTQ+ inclusion (Stonewall Diversity Champion) and as a Disability Confident employer.

We are proud signatories of the Armed Forces Covenant and welcome applications from service people.

Benefits

We offer some fantastic benefits including:

39 days leave

options for flexible working

onsite gyms and a cycle to work scheme

sector leading policies around maternity, adoption and shared parental leave (up to 26wks full pay), paternity leave (up to 6wks full pay) and a Fertility Treatment Policy

stunning campus environments in Exeter and Cornwall, in the beautiful South West of England
