About the Role

We are looking for a highly organised, proactive and adaptable Lead Administrator to join our Course Administration team.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced administrator who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys building strong working relationships, and takes pride in delivering an excellent service to customers and colleagues alike.

Working across multiple customer areas and supporting two administration teams, you will act as a trusted point of contact, balancing competing priorities, managing customer expectations and ensuring the smooth delivery of administrative services. You will be equally comfortable working independently and collaboratively, demonstrating sound judgement, initiative and a positive approach to problem-solving.

What you’ll do as a Lead Administrator

Managing and prioritising workloads across multiple workstreams to ensure deadlines and service standards are met.
Building and maintaining positive working relationships with customers, stakeholders and colleagues.
Managing customer expectations proactively, providing clear communication and practical solutions.
Identifying opportunities to improve, simplify and standardise processes to increase efficiency and consistency.
Supporting the department's move towards greater automation and the use of digital and AI-enabled solutions.
Sharing best practice and contributing to cross-team collaboration and knowledge sharing.
Supporting colleagues through coaching, mentoring and collaborative working.
Taking ownership of issues, resolving problems effectively and escalating risks where appropriate.

Does this sound like you?

Significant administration experience within a busy, fast-paced operational environment.
Able to confidently manage multiple priorities and deliver results with minimal supervision.
Highly organised, with excellent workload and time management skills.
Skilled at building strong, professional relationships with customers and stakeholders, whilst providing appropriate challenge where required.
Customer-focused, with the ability to balance customer needs alongside organisational priorities, policies and processes.
Comfortable working independently and collaboratively as part of a wider team.
An effective communicator with strong stakeholder management skills.
Positive and adaptable, with a commitment to continuous improvement and embracing change.
Passionate about simplifying processes, improving efficiency and reducing unnecessary complexity.
Interested in how automation, standardisation and AI can enhance service delivery and the customer experience.
Demonstrates resilience, initiative and sound judgement when making decisions and solving problems.

Why Join Us?

This role offers the opportunity to make a real impact on how course administration services are delivered. You'll work with a wide range of stakeholders, contribute to transformational improvements and help shape more efficient, standardised ways of working that support future growth and innovation.

Vetting and checks:

This role requires Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) clearance, which involves verifying your identity, employment history, nationality, and criminal record to meet government security standards. In addition, depending on the nature of the role, you may need to obtain formal Security Clearance (such as CTC or SC), which includes more detailed background checks on employment, criminal record, and financial history to ensure suitability for working in secure environments. Please note that UK residency requirements may apply for certain levels of clearance. You will also complete an Occupational Health Questionnaire so we can identify and provide any support you may need to undertake the role effectively.

Let’s impact a better future, together. Apply today.

We prioritise your skills and potential.

We offer flexible and hybrid working where possible and make reasonable adjustments throughout recruitment and employment.
