**The Role and the Department**

**_The Role_**

Working to the Business Partner model, this role supports learning and teaching in departments in one of the University’s four faculties, providing academic and support staff with specialist advice (on, for example: programme development, educational partnerships, annual monitoring, regulation and policy, assessment, enhancement and assurance, student feedback and student data, external examining, external regulation and compliance activity) and more general support (as requested and agreed with their line manager and/or the Head of section). They manage assurance and enhancement processes for departments within the faculty, liaising with members of academic staff and support staff in departments/schools, and working closely with staff in the Faculty Office (particularly the Deputy Executive Deans for Education).

The role will also provide education policy support for the office, analysing regulations, external guidance and data, taking the lead on relevant areas of policy/process development, and supporting committees and working groups, as agreed with their line manager and/or the Head of section. This will involve liaising with senior members of staff within the Education Division (e.g. Heads of Service, Academic Registrar, PVC and Deputy PVC Education) and across the University, as necessary.

We work directly with departments and faculties, overseeing quality assurance and enhancement processes, and managing progress and examination processes for research degree students. We oversee student appeals and academic misconduct processes, and run the University’s matriculation and graduation ceremonies. Our Common Awards Team manages the national Common Awards partnership, working with the Church of England and Theological Educational Institute (TEIs) partners across England, Scotland and Wales.
