3 weeks ago

Oxford, United Kingdom Lady Margaret Hall Full time

Lady Margaret Hall is a constituent College of the University of Oxford and is located in spacious gardens beside the University Park.. The College was founded in 1878 with a dual passion for learning and for equality, making it possible for the first time for women to study at Oxford. Today, the College continues to draw inspiration from this great pioneering vision. It is now a co-educational academic community of 400 undergraduate and more than 200 postgraduate students, utterly committed to research and scholarship and to effective, highly personalised teaching and learning for students from all backgrounds. The College prepares its students to live and work in a fast-moving, complex, and global society that is hungry for knowledge, communication, and integrity.

Main Purpose of Job

The Junior Welfare Deans support the Dean in the disciplinary role and the Head of Wellbeing in the welfare role. This is a responsible position, in which the Junior Welfare Deans are frequently in the ‘front line’ of decanal work and welfare support in the college, particularly in the evenings and at weekends - between week 0 and week 9, week days between 5.30pm and 9.30am and during the weekend, as well as during the Easter vacation.

They are expected to provide a timely and appropriate response to students with health or welfare issues, and to assist in maintaining agreed college regulations. They carry authority delegated by the Dean and Head of Wellbeing and should always act professionally, and in a manner which commands respect from undergraduate and graduate students. In particular, when on duty they need to be and remain able to carry out their duties promptly, properly and conscientiously at all times.

- To deal with minor emergencies such as illness, urgent student welfare issues, and calls concerning College safety, outside normal working hours, and to help with crises.
- To play an important role in supporting student welfare outside the tutorial relationship by providing ‘crisis support’ for students on a wide range of welfare issues, outside of office hours. The College will require (and pay for) the appointees - unless already recently undertaken - to go on relevant welfare training of 24 hours, and other relevant training.

- The Junior Welfare Dean on duty will support students that need to go to hospital in an ambulance for a serious condition. They will either go themselves and stay with the student until they are discharged into the care of a doctor, or they will ensure that another responsible member of College will accompany the student to hospital and stay with them until they have seen a doctor.
- To respond to any examination emergencies that may arise outside office hours, where necessary, liaise with the relevant officers in college and university, and undergo the training required by the Proctors to be eligible to act as Invigilator in such cases.
- To share information related to student welfare as appropriate with some/all of: the Dean (for matters of discipline), Head of Wellbeing, Chaplain and Nurse, (for matters of welfare), the appropriate College Officer, the College’s Peer Supporters, at the earliest convenience to ensure appropriate information-sharing and co-ordinated follow-up.
- To help organise dissemination of information regarding welfare, discipline and community life to members of the College, in conjunction with the Head of Wellbeing, Chaplain and Nurse including taking part in a formal ‘Living Well at LMH’ briefing for new students in Freshers’ week.
- To act as one of the College’s qualified First Aid team. The College will require (and pay for) the appointees - unless already recently qualified in first-aid - to go on a first aid course prior to appointment.
- In exceptional circumstances an off-duty Junior Welfare Dean may be asked to assist with an ongoing incident.
