Full Time, Permanent - Professional Ser

Oxford Brookes is a leading modern institution with big ambitions. We are seeking to increase our global footprint, broaden access to an Oxford Brookes education, and further enhance our reputation as a leading global University.

The Admissions Office is at the heart of these ambitions, playing a key role in the achievement of the University’s objectives through the delivery of a fair, efficient and transparent admissions process that enables equitable access for those students with the potential to succeed at Oxford Brookes.

We have recently expanded our Admissions team to support us in delivering an exceptional applicant experience across our UG and PGT portfolio.

The new role of Senior Admissions Officer (Global) will lead a team responsible for the processing of applications and will work to ensure that applications from designated international markets are processed in line with institutional policy and sector best practice, as well as ensuring that appropriate compliance processes are in place. The post holder will provide expert advice on qualifications and market context, and act as the primary contact for the Global Recruitment team as well as agents and partners within the designated regional market.

You’ll have experience of the UK higher education admissions process and a good knowledge and understanding of the international applicant journey. The ability to lead a team to deliver against performance requirements is essential.

We have one full time, and one part time (0.5FTE) vacancies (which is a part-time role as part of a job share), although other flexible working arrangements can be considered.

The Admissions team is currently working remotely, and will be moving to agile working practices longer term. We are therefore open to discussing hybrid working arrangements with candidates.

For an informal conversation about this role, please contact Robert Hodgson, Head of Admissions ([email protected] ).

You will also enjoy the benefits of working at Oxford Brookes University with up to 38 days holiday, rising to 41 days holiday (this includes 13 Bank Holidays and Concessionary Days), a generous Local Government pension scheme (14.7% Employer contribution rate), cycle to work scheme and access to a variety of university facilities (NHS Dentist, Brookes Nursery, Gym and sports facilities).
