The Academic Office is a close-knit and supportive team of six, working alongside the Academic Director and Academic Registrar to deliver the full cycle of academic administration within the College.

The Academic Office Administrator plays an important role in ensuring these activities run smoothly and efficiently.
This is a varied and engaging role, well suited to someone with strong administrative skills, a positive and approachable manner, and a genuine enthusiasm for supporting students and academic colleagues. The post-holder will be a key member of the Academic Office team and a first point of contact for many enquiries, both in person and by email.

They will be comfortable working as part of a team, willing to assist colleagues beyond their immediate remit when required, and keen to develop their skills and experience within a busy academic environment.
