Leeds, United Kingdom University of Leeds Full time

**Plus Programme Lead Officer**:
**Salary: Grade 7 (£34,304 - £40,927 p.a. depending on experience)**

This role will be based on the university campus with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.

**Do you want to play a key role in supporting the success of students, particularly those from underrepresented groups? Are you interested in helping ensure that students feel they belong and matter at University?**

The University of Leeds is one of the top 135 universities in the world. We have a truly global community, with more than 39,000 students from 170 different countries and over 9,000 staff of 100 different nationalities. Established in 1904, we have a strong tradition of academic excellence, reflected in first-class student education, along with world-leading research that has a real impact around the globe.

We are looking for a motivated individual to lead a number of projects and areas of work, designed to improve the success (with regards to non-continuation rates, attainment and progression into graduate destinations) for students across the institution including those from underrepresented groups.

Based in the Plus Programme Team in Educational Engagement, the role will link with Faculties, Schools and Services at the University of Leeds to coordinate and provide direction to our work around retention, identifying gaps in provision, undertaking data analysis and reporting on the impact of the work.

This will include institutional processes to facilitate implementation of learner analytics - identifying and engaging with students at risk of falling behind or not continuing with their studies.

The role will require strong project management skills, collaborative working across the institution and understanding of complex processes. You will also need a sound understanding of data analysis and evaluation to implement an institutional framework measuring impact of student success initiatives.

**What we offer in return**
- 25 days holiday plus 15.5 Bank Holidays/days that the University is closed by custom (including Christmas) - That’s over 40 days a year
- Generous pension scheme - the University contributes 21.6% of salary;
