Home Recruitment Manager

Description:

The University of Nottingham is seeking to appoint a Home Recruitment Manager to join its Home Recruitment team. This is an exciting and rewarding role, which contributes to the effective implementation of the University’s student recruitment and widening participation strategies.

As the successful candidate, you will co-lead a team of Home Recruitment Officers and an administrator. You will be responsible for managing, developing and evaluating an innovative programme of events and activities, aimed at encouraging students from all backgrounds to progress to higher education and specifically to make the University of Nottingham their preferred choice for study.

You will be able to demonstrate significant relevant skills and experience appropriate to the post, including experience in programme, event and team management at a strategic level as well as excellent communication, interpersonal, presentation and organisation skills. In addition, you will require the ability to build and develop a strong rapport with academic staff, professional services colleagues and students from across the University as well as staff from local and national schools and colleges. You will be a strong team player, have excellent IT skills and have the ability to manage a varied and demanding workload, working proactively under pressure to meet deadlines and managing multiple projects and staff concurrently.

The role holder will need to be willing to travel and stay overnight across the UK as required.

At the University of Nottingham, we aim to give you all the support you need to nurture your talent, and to develop and reach your professional and personal career goals. As a University employee, you will have access to a range of benefits and rewards, including leading fitness and health facilities, staff discounts and travel schemes, along with a generous holiday allowance and a highly attractive pension scheme.

This is a full-time (36.25 hours per week), permanent position. The role is based in the Home Recruitment Team at the Jubilee Campus, but involves some travel to schools, colleges and other venues around the UK. Some of these venues are rural and sometimes quite remote; therefore, you must have a full driving licence, access to your own transport and business insurance. This role also involves some evening and weekend work.
