The opportunity

We're seeking an Operations Assistant to play a crucial role in the daily operations of the Fashion, Textiles and Technology Institute (FTTI) at the University of the Arts London. This is an exciting opportunity to become a key member of a team that pushes the boundaries of innovation in the fashion, textiles, and technology industry.

FTTI is the legacy of a significant £5.9 million funding award from the AHRC Creative Research & Development Partnership, under the UKRI Creative Industry Cluster Programme. The institute is strategically located in the London College of Fashion's new East Bank campus in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, a thriving centre for creativity and innovation.

In this role, you will work closely with the Institute Manager to streamline institute operations, serve as the initial contact for our prestigious partners and stakeholders, and support the administration of cutting-edge global R&D projects.

Our partners include notable institutions such as University College London, University of Loughborough, Queen Mary University London, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the British Council. These relationships enhance our vibrant, collaborative environment and are integral to our mission of integrating academic research with practical industry applications.

Join us and contribute to a pioneering project that is setting new standards in the fashion, textiles, and technology sectors.

About you

The ideal candidate will have experience of working in an HEI environment, with strong attention to detail, project management experience, a collaborative working approach and be comfortable working in a team and individually. You will be able to use your initiative and organise your work to achieve objectives on time. The role will require extensive use of finance and Microsoft systems (REX, Excel, Word), and so experience working in a financial, administrative or research department at an HEI would be extremely desirable.

We are UAL

University of the Arts London (UAL) offers an extensive range of courses in art, design, fashion, communication and performing arts. We are a collegiate University spread across London with six Colleges, four Institutes and five Research Centres.

We’re made up of all types of people, coming together in London, the world’s creative capital. We are designers, artists, performers, thinkers, researchers and makers. Our students, staff and graduates form a global network of creatives, entrepreneurs and leaders. Together, our ideas change the world. Because the world needs creativity.

We are ranked highly across the board. We are ranked first for specialist art and design, second in the world for Art and Design in the 2023 QS World University Rankings (for the fifth year in a row), ranked fifth in sustainability and two of our colleges were rated in the top three fashion schools in the world.

Closing date: 24 May 2024 at 23:55.
