Newcastle upon Tyne, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom Newcastle University Full time

We are a world class research-intensive university. We deliver teaching and learning of the highest quality. We play a leading role in economic, social and cultural development of the North East of England. Attracting and retaining high-calibre people is fundamental to our continued success.

The Role
A unique opportunity to join the Finance Hub, without working as a financial specialist. The Operations Team supports the overall finance function in a variety of ways meaning that this role allows cross-functional collaboration and is an amazing way to build a strong network within the department.

Without a doubt, top-tier organisational skills are key. The team spins a lot of plates and whilst we have organisational tools in place to help, it required a keen eye for detail and the ability to work on multiple tasks and projects alongside each other. Also, an interest in internal processes will go a long way, as we work towards reviewing and optimising our ways of working towards higher levels of efficiency that will overall have a positive impact on the wider department.

You will provide operational and administrative support to the senior management team and professional services colleagues across Finance. Finance is a large team of skilled and experienced financial professionals based in multiple buildings across the University campus.

You will provide a comprehensive administrative service including co-ordinating support for committees and meetings; providing support and guidance on People Services issues, purchasing on behalf of Finance, administering the recruitment process for Finance; assisting with co-ordinating health and safety matters and supporting the Senior Management Team.

For information enquiries please contact Paige Patterson, Operations Manager,

£25,742 to £26,444 per annum, with progression to £27,979.
