Fixed term for 3 years, 37 hours per week
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced Programme Manager to oversee major academic transformation projects across the University. Working closely with the PVC (Teaching and Learning), you will play a pivotal part in introducing far-reaching improvements to the academic experience and structural efficiency of the student journey.
With your commitment to improving our teaching and learning environment and the wider student experience, you will have the confidence and drive to take forward complex, cross-functional initiatives, ensuring alignment with strategic goals and measurable outcomes.
You will hold a Programme or Project Management qualification such as MSP, APM, PRINCE2, and possess excellent communication and inter-personal skills, enabling you to work successfully with stakeholders at all levels and from a variety of backgrounds, including senior managers, academic staff, and technical and non-technical professionals.
While your experience could have been gained in a variety of sectors or industries, you will have held a management or senior role within a higher education or academic environment. You will also have a genuine interest in higher education and an appreciation of the University's vision, values and strategic objectives.
We offer an excellent employment package including hybrid working, blending a mix of remote and on-campus working (dependent on work duties).
The University is deeply committed to equality and diversity for all its students and staff. We seek to be diverse and inclusive, supporting individuals and groups to fulfil their potential and nurture a sense of belonging. We strive to be an accessible, inclusive employer, removing barriers for all.
