Clare College is seeking a Tutorial and Admissions Assistant. This role provides an excellent opportunity to contribute across the wide range of activities undertaken by the College Office. Throughout the year, the College Office undertakes a number of student focussed projects that are vital to the success of the College. These include undergraduate admissions, the accommodation ballot, Freshers Week and Matriculation, exam season, and the organising of graduations. The Tutorial & Admissions Assistant provides comprehensive administrative support to, and co-ordination between, students, Fellows, and non-academic staff across these flagship projects. This role would suit someone who enjoys combining creative thinking and problem solving with accurate and reliable administrative skills.
Founded in 1326, Clare College is the second oldest of the 31 colleges in the University of Cambridge. Regarded as one of the more progressive and informal, it is renowned as a college that achieves academically at the highest levels, whilst also being welcoming, forward-thinking, and inclusive. Clare College has a small number of academic employees and around 150 non-academic staff across a wide range of departments (including Housekeeping, Hospitality, Buildings and Maintenance, Porters, Finance and Tutorial). Staff support the academic mission of the College as well as its commercial conferencing business.
Located in the heart of Cambridge city centre, the College is extraordinarily beautiful and famed for its gardens on “the Backs” (the famous backs of the Colleges that overlook the River Cam). Clare’s Old Court, a Grade I listed building, is the centre of the College and is unique among the ancient Cambridge Colleges in having maintained its architectural integrity over the course of its history.
