About the role

As a Student Engagement Administrator, you will be part of the College Student Experience Team, providing an effective, customer-focused frontline support service for students. You will offer professional information, guidance and signposting across a range of personal, pastoral and programme-related matters, working closely with colleagues in student engagement, welfare and other support services to ensure students receive appropriate support.
You will play an important role in monitoring student attendance and engagement, responding to enquiries and maintaining accurate student records. You will also administer mitigating circumstances and appeals, support weekly attendance and engagement panels, and prepare communications, guidance materials, workshops and events. Alongside your own responsibilities, you will contribute to the wider Professional Services team, sharing ideas for continuous improvement and providing support during busy periods of the academic year.

About you

You will have relevant academic or vocational qualifications alongside experience in a relevant role, including experience within student support administration where discretion and confidentiality are essential. You will be confident supporting a wide range of student needs, developing effective working relationships across an organisation, and maintaining systems and accurate records. Experience of University systems, regulations, processes and procedures, or knowledge of Blackboard, would be advantageous.
With excellent IT, written and verbal communication skills, you will be able to communicate effectively with a wide range of colleagues and manage a high volume of enquiries while maintaining a consistently high-quality service. You will be organised, flexible and solution-focused, comfortable adapting to change and able to prioritise effectively. You will also be confident working collaboratively as part of a team while using your own initiative when required.
