The Faculty Operating Service works with Faculty, Deanery and School Senior Leadership Teams to support those areas of work which provide essential services to our core business of education, research, and enterprise. We underpin the achievement of the strategic objectives of the university.

You will join a supportive and friendly FOS team. To be successful you will be a motivated, enthusiastic, and proactive team player who is culturally sensitive and is able to work effectively in a flexible and responsive environment. You will be able to build strong relationships and partnerships with internal and external organisations and groups and be able to liaise confidently with your stakeholders.

**The Role**

You will provide professional operational assistance, diary, and similar administrative support to a Head of School and, by association, other senior members of staff within the school. This will include undertaking a range of responsibilities which might include working on projects and activities, diary management and event organisation, travel arrangements, minute taking, financial administration, website updates, social media and organising group meetings. You will be able to quickly build strong relationships and partnerships with internal and external organisations and groups and be able to liaise confidently with your stakeholders.

As a member of our busy and engaged administrative team, you will deliver a thoughtful, pro-active, and efficient service, which meets the requirements of the faculty’s varied and interesting activities across five academic schools: Business; Law; Mathematical Sciences; Education; and Economic, Political and Social Sciences working closely with the existing School administrative teams.

**About You**

We welcome applicants with experience within an Executive Assistant style role, keen to work as part of a team. You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills as well as proven IT skills (ideally including MS SharePoint and Teams). You will be a strong team player with a positive and enthusiastic approach who is able to use their initiative and prioritise their own work whilst contributing to a team. Proven experience of diary management on behalf of others, minute taking, effectively managing a diverse workload and a strong attention to detail are essential.

**What we can offer you**

We understand the importance of personal and career development, and through our own training team and Linked-In learning you will have access to varied training courses. As part of a larger organisation, we can offer varied opportunities for you to enhance your skills and career progression through the administration support team.

As well as additional benefits that will make your life easier, such as a generous holiday allowance and additional university closure days, we will support your long-term future too, with pension scheme membership, subsidised health and fitness facilities and a range of discounts.
