We are looking to appoint two Administrative Assistants to join our Executive Support Team on a 12-month fixed-term basis. Working alongside our Executive Assistants, you will help deliver a professional and efficient support service to the University's leadership team.

You will provide comprehensive administrative support, including diary management and coordination, travel arrangements, processing routine orders and payments, and supporting the organisation of meetings. You will maintain accurate records and systems, handle correspondence, and contribute to a range of wider administrative activities across the team.

You will be educated to GCSE level or be able to demonstrate an equivalent level of experience. You will also have experience of providing administrative support, with experience supporting senior colleagues being advantageous but not essential. This role would be particularly suitable for someone with an administration background who is looking to develop their skills and build a career in professional executive support.

In return, we offer a competitive salary and a generous benefits package, including annual leave entitlement, health and wellbeing support, and access to a range of staff benefits designed to support you both professionally and personally.

Unfortunately, this role is not eligible for Skilled Worker visa sponsorship. Applicants must therefore already have the right to work in the UK.

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued, respected and able to thrive. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, experiences and communities and are committed to ensuring our recruitment process is accessible and inclusive. If you require any reasonable adjustments at any stage of the recruitment process, please let us know and we will be happy to discuss your requirements.

In return for your contributions to the work of our University, you'll be based from one of our industry leading campuses, enjoying a range of benefits exclusive to members of our community and contributing to our vision, value and culture.
