Norwich, United Kingdom University of East Anglia Full time

Starting salary from £46,974 per annum (pro rata), dependent on skills and experience, with an annual increment up to £54,395 per annum (pro rata)

This role is part of the Student Inclusion and Access and Participation leadership team with the Associate Pro Vice Chancellor of Student Inclusion, Head of Outreach and Head of NEACO UEA and working closely with the Director of Admissions, Recruitment and Marketing and Director of Student and Academic Services. You will work with this team on the implementation of UEA’s Access and Participation Plan (APP) and all related policies, action plans and regulatory and statutory reporting.  

You will assess available evidence and ensure that UEA has an ever-evolving and robust strategy to address risks to equality of opportunity and outcomes for students from underrepresented and disadvantaged groups. This will include project managing whole UEA strategic and operational approaches to meet UEA’s stretching APP targets and the expectations of the regulator, the Office for Students. This will involve effective and impactful allocation of UEA’s significant APP budget, and development of appropriate governance and organisational structures. You will work cross institutionally with a network of embedded operational staff and senior management roles, to develop, project manage and monitor a series of strategic interventions to meet our goals.   

You will also manage UEA’s Widening Participation Evidence and Evaluation Team and be responsible for the design and development of all relevant monitoring, evaluation and reporting to internal governance structures, the sector, and the Office for Students, to drive continuous improvement in strategy and implementation. You will also be responsible for the line management of the APP administrative team.  

To fulfil the duties of this role effectively, you will have a well–developed knowledge of issues related to widening access to higher education, social inclusion and inclusive education. You will also have experience of evidence-lead project, evaluation and budget management and strong interpersonal and negotiation skills to work collaboratively across the institution to motivate and lead staff at all levels. In addition, you will have experience of building and maintaining relationships with external agencies including regulatory bodies.   

This full-time post is available from 2 December 2024 on an indefinite basis. There is the potential for us to consider part-time working at a minimum of 0.8 FTE. 

UEA offers a variety of flexible working options and although this role is advertised on a full-time basis, we encourage applications from individuals who would prefer a flexible working pattern including annualised hours, compressed working hours, part-time at a minimum of 0.8 FTE as noted above, job share, term-time only and/or hybrid working. Details of preferred hours should be stated in the personal statement and will be discussed further at interview.

We strongly encourage applicants from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Backgrounds and welcome applications from all protected groups as defined by the Equality Act 2010. Appointment will be made on merit.

Closing date: 6 October 2024
