Job details

When you work for the University of Lancashire, you’ll be part of a thriving community of talent that’s united in a common commitment to transform lives. We do this by delivering an outstanding educational experience and creating prosperity and opportunity in the communities we serve. Whatever your role, you’ll be playing a vital part in helping us achieve our vision.

About the role:

This role will provide a comprehensive Personal Assistant and secretarial service to the Dean of School and others as agreed. The School of Engineering and Computing is one of the largest Schools in the University with over 200 staff and 2500 students; and this is a great opportunity to join a small and busy team who support the smooth running of the School, working cooperatively to maintain a high level of support and service quality.

About you:

The successful candidate will be a highly organised and proactive individual, with experience of providing high‑level administrative and personal assistance to senior leaders, ideally within a higher‑education or similarly complex organisational environment. You must be able to demonstrate excellent organisational and time‑management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities, complex diaries, and confidential matters with discretion and professionalism.

You will have a range of GCSEs, including English Language and Maths at Grade C/4 or above, or appropriate equivalent experiential learning, along with strong communication and interpersonal skills. Ideally you will also be experienced in preparing high‑quality correspondence, reports, agendas, and minutes, and in supporting committees, meetings, and governance processes.

You will be highly proficient in the use of standard office and digital systems, with a strong attention to detail and accuracy, along with being able to work independently, exercising sound judgement and initiative; whilst also contributing effectively as part of a wider team.

Use of AI in applications: We want to understand your genuine interest in the role and artificial intelligence can be a useful tool to support your application. However, all examples and statements provided must be truthful, factually accurate and taken directly from your own experience and the written elements of your application should accurately reflect your own communication style. Applications that rely too heavily on AI tools can appear generic and lack the detail we need to assess your skills and experience.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.

What we can offer you:

We have a fantastic package of rewards and lifestyle benefits – from an attractive annual leave entitlement to access to a comprehensive employee benefits platform which includes a 24/7 online GP.

Our people are our most important asset. We’ll encourage you to make the most of your talents and continually develop your skills and knowledge. As well as realising your career ambitions, you’ll be making a positive difference to other people’s lives.

About us:

We are proud to be a diverse, multicultural university. We are committed to building a truly inclusive culture where diversity is championed. Applications are particularly welcomed from individuals who will support the diversification within the University and support its development of a culture that is inclusive and welcoming to all.

The University is committed to providing a safe environment to study, work and visit, protecting children, young people and adults at risk from harm and abuse. Our safeguarding policy and safer recruitment procedure outlines our approach, alongside other internal policies, procedures and guidance which can be found on our Safeguarding page.

Applicants applying for roles in regulated activity and that are listed as an exception under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 will be required to disclose any spent and unspent convictions and undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) Check at the appropriate level, the University will only ask an applicant to make an application for a DBS check if they are legally entitled to.
