Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom University of Leeds Full time

The University of Leeds is one of the top 80 universities in the world. We have a truly global community, with more than 39,000 students from 170 different countries and over 9,000 staff of 100 different nationalities. Established in 1904, we have a strong tradition of academic excellence, reflected in first-class student education, along with world-leading research that has a real impact around the globe.

Residential Services provides accommodation for around 8,500 University of Leeds students in self-catered and catered sites, both on and off campus. We also provide facilities for meetings and conferences. We are an innovative service with a clear vision to provide some of the country's best student accommodation.

As a Senior Residence Manager, you work as part of the Residential Services Management Team to lead, motivate and develop your teams of staff to deliver effective and efficient service to residents and visitors in line with our strategic priorities and goals. This will include ensuring that accommodation is maintained and made available for letting, in order to maximise conference and student occupancy at residential sites.

You will have a proven ability to develop and manage managers and staff effectively, creating an environment where colleagues are motivated and supported to achieve service/ organisational goals.
