University of York, United Kingdom UNIVERSITY OF YORK Full time

The Global Opportunities team is part of the International Recruitment, Partnerships and Mobility team in the External Relations Directorate and manages the University's portfolio of international student mobility partners and programmes; bespoke short courses for students and staff of partner universities overseas; and open access summer schools for students from around the world. These programmes aim to build new international relationships and enhance existing relationships with key University partners across the globe, and support University's strategy.

The team is growing in-line with the University's ambitious new strategy to rapidly expand its potential to generate new income streams and develop substantive global partnerships aligned to the emergent new University Strategy. The IRPM team is therefore being tasked with increasing the visibility of the University of York to global audiences, including partner international universities, international academic networks and other international research and teaching partnerships. The University has significant geographical reach with its current partners and prides itself on the depth of these relationships.

Main purpose of the role

This one year fixed term post is to provide administrative support for the Global Opportunities team across the range of the team's work, assisting one or more designated areas of activity e.g. exchanges, visiting students, short courses, summer opportunities. This will include being responsible for responding to all initial enquiries from key internal and external stakeholders (students, staff, advisers) relating to the mobility programmes we offer.

You will have a firm understanding of international student mobility. Working with the team members, this role will involve communicating with stakeholders regarding programme structures, regulations, contract documentation and other requirements. You will maintain detailed records on participation and financial arrangements and produce high quality written material conforming to scheme guidelines and timescales.

You will be involved in promotional and communication activities, including web page updates, social media, publicity material development and distribution, and face to face events such as Open Days. You will be expected to play an active role in the development and improvement of administrative processes and procedures relating to the team's activities.

A special feature of this post is the requirement for strong pastoral and interpersonal skills so that effective assistance can be delivered to students in need. You will also need to be flexible in working hours
