Help Build the Data That Drives Better Learning
We believe great decisions start with great information.
Every learner who joins us, every employer we support, and every funding claim we submit relies on accurate, timely and trusted data. That's where you come in. We're looking for an MIS Officer who takes pride in getting the detail right, enjoys solving problems and wants to make a genuine contribution to improving education and skills.
This isn't just an administrative role. You'll help ensure that our management information is trusted, our funding is protected and our teams have the insight they need to deliver outstanding outcomes for learners and employers.
What You'll Achieve
Success in this role isn't measured by how many records you process—it's measured by the difference your work makes. Within your first year you'll help us to:
- Maintain learner data accuracy above 99.5%.
- Deliver accurate, on-time monthly ILR submissions.
- Ensure learner records are complete, compliant and audit-ready.
- Improve the quality and reliability of management information across the organisation.
- Reduce manual administration by identifying smarter ways of working.
- Become a trusted source of support for colleagues across the business.
You'll take ownership of:
- Maintaining accurate learner and employer records.
- Supporting monthly ILR submissions and funding compliance.
- Producing accurate operational reports and management information.
- Identifying and resolving data quality issues before they become problems.
- Supporting internal and external audits.
- Working with colleagues to improve processes and data quality.
- Helping develop more efficient, automated ways of working.
You'll be trusted to manage your workload, make informed decisions and recommend improvements—not simply follow a checklist.
