· Enjoy working as part of a team.

· Are motivated to provide a helpful and responsive service.

· Can follow processes carefully and ask sensible questions when something is unclear.

It would be an advantage if you have experience of, or an interest in:

· Student records or student administration.

· The student lifecycle, including registration, enrolment, mitigation, or graduation.

· Working in higher education, further education, or another regulated environment.

· Supporting data quality or checking information across different systems

What You'll Be Doing

As Administrative Assistant, you will provide practical administrative support across Student Records and Programme Administration, including:

· Supporting the maintenance of complete and accurate student record data.

· Inputting data as required and as directed.

· Liaising with academic and professional services staff to support the collection of timely and accurate information.

· Providing information from the student record system to colleagues where required.

· Supporting the production of student and staff ID cards.

· Updating registration and attendance records on the Student Loans Company system.

· Supporting updates to term dates on the Course Management Service.

· Responding to routine queries from teams such as Programme Administration,

Admissions, and Finance.

· Assisting with ad hoc requests such as transcripts, replacement certificate requests, and

education verification requests.

Working With Others

You will work closely with colleagues across Student Records, Programme Administration, and other professional services teams. You may also liaise with external stakeholders such as Student Finance England regarding student attendance.

This is a collaborative role, and you will be supported by colleagues who understand the systems and processes you will be working with.
