The Undergraduate Admissions Team is seeking a dynamic and effective Undergraduate Admissions Selector to join our Undergraduate Selection Team. You will join a team of ten staff responsible for assessing and processing selection decisions on all undergraduate applications received by the University by UCAS, drawing on support of admissions practitioner colleagues and partner Admissions Tutors in academic departments. Along with administering all processes related to the undergraduate applications you will also have a key role in responding to queries from applicants and their parents, teachers and advisers using a range of mediums, as well as supporting recruitment activities such as the University's open days.
You will need strong administrative skills and be able to demonstrate independent decision-making within clear guideline and frameworks. Due to the varied nature of this role you will have strong time-management skills as well as the ability to work well independently and within a team setting.
This opportunity is for a permanent full-time post. Due to the nature of the UCAS process, you will be expected to undertake a limited amount of evening and weekend work for which time off in lieu or over-time pay will be available. Leave may be restricted at certain times of year (especially in August).
We value, promote and celebrate inclusion, challenging discrimination and putting equality, diversity and belonging at the heart of everything we do. We aim to be an inclusive university, where difference is celebrated, respected and encouraged. We truly believe that diversity of experience, perspectives, and backgrounds will lead to a better environment for our employees and students, so we encourage applications from all genders, backgrounds, and communities, particularly from under-represented groups such as Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME) and disabled people, and value the positive impact that will have on our teams.
We have made a positive dedication towards gender equality and intersectionality receiving a Bronze Athena SWAN award, and we are actively working towards a Silver award. We are a family-friendly University, with an increasingly agile workforce, we are open to flexible working arrangements. We’re also proud to be a disability confident employer and are happy to discuss any reasonable adjustments you may require.
