Job description

Fixed term for 12 months, 14.8 hours per week

We are seeking a motivated professional to join our new Placement Services Team as a Placements and Employability Co-ordinator on a 0.4 FTE basis (working two days per week).

Primarily working closely with our Nursing and Allied Health programme teams and students, this role will support the set-up, organisation, and evaluation of practice placement experience.

Acting as the first point of contact for students, academics, and external partners, you will play a key role in delivering high-quality support for Professional Placements. You will respond to queries via in person, phone, email, and MS Teams, signposting or escalating complex matters. This role requires excellent communication skills, initiative, and a commitment to providing outstanding customer service.

The ideal candidate will be educated to A-level (Level 3) standard or equivalent and will have experience of working with students and/or the public. You must possess the ability to work collaboratively and work flexibly to meet the needs of the service. With strong administrative and organisational skills and a keen eye for detail, you will have a passion for student success and an ability to work collaboratively with a range of stakeholders and networks.

If you are interested in this post, please tell us how you meet our person specification and provide examples of this in your application.

We offer an excellent employment package including hybrid working, blending a mix of remote and on-campus working (dependent on work duties).

The University is deeply committed to equality and diversity for all its students and staff. We seek to be diverse and inclusive, supporting individuals and groups to fulfil their potential and nurture a sense of belonging. We strive to be an accessible, inclusive employer, removing barriers for all. Find out more about our approach to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, including our commitments and accreditations as a Disability Confident Leader, Stonewall Top 100 Employer, Athena Swan Silver Award holder and Race Equality Charter Bronze Award holder.

Informal enquiries are welcome to Claire Goodliff ([email protected])

If you are a current student at the University, you are welcome to apply for part-time roles of 16 hours or less per week, unless you are a part-time postgraduate student, in which case you can also apply for full time roles, subject to any visa requirements.
