Can you develop exceptional, pro-active relationships with colleagues to create the best possible experience for students and for colleagues delivering student-related activities?

Are you a motivating leader, with a proven track record in managing high-performing teams?

We are seeking an experienced and motivated communications professional to provide strategic leadership to communications and engagement with our students and student-related colleagues across a range of channels.

You will be a vital strategic link between many different departments in the University and will need to build strong and productive relationships with a wide range of colleagues.

This appointment comes at a particularly exciting time for the University, as it devises a strategy for the coming decade that drives the need to form strong partnerships with our student population so that they become co-creators of their education and experience. Listening to the voices of our diverse student population will be essential for success in this role.
