Description:

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Postgraduate Office within the Faculty of Health & Medicine, supporting the team in managing postgraduate programmes of study including doctoral programmes across the whole faculty. You will manage a small team of coordinators and an assistant to undertake work to maximize our students’ experience and support academic colleagues. This role will have responsibility for all the Postgraduate Coordinators who support the postgraduate taught and research programmes across all three divisions within the Faculty of Health & Medicine.
