Head of Academic Administration (RS027)

The University of West London is ranked as the top modern university in London*. Shortlisted for Times Higher Education’s prestigious “University of the Year award”, and with 98% of our graduates in employment or further study within 6 months of graduating**, is the Career University.

We are now seeking to recruit three senior managers in Registry to develop and lead on the implementation of a new Registry strategy and to take the service to the next level. Reporting directly to the Associate Pro-Vice Chancellor and Chief Information Officer and working collaboratively together, these posts will form the Registry Senior Management Team.

With a team of over 50, the Head of Academic Administration will lead, manage and be accountable for the delivery of academic administration across eight Schools and Colleges across multiple sites; including front-line services to deal with student enquires, engagement monitoring, regulations advice, assessment support, boards, progression, compliance and support for external/partner institutions.

We are looking for enthusiastic and experienced administrators who come with new ideas for improving services and processes, a zeal for efficiency, particularly through better use of information systems and technology, a good communicator, and with a real passion for enhancing the student experience. You will also be an experienced manager of human resources.

With the Elizabeth line opening we will be even more accessible; our Ealing campus becomes only 42 minutes from Reading and 24 minutes from Liverpool Street.

There isn’t a better time to join the University of West London, and if this sounds like the right challenge for you, we’d love to hear from you.

Everyone will get a response.
