Job description


Overall purpose

The purpose of the role is to oversee the management of the Student Information System (SIS) at Regent College London.

This includes working closely with key stakeholders to identify and address system requirements, facilitating improvements in curriculum management, and ensuring compliance with regulatory obligations such as HESA Data Futures.

Specific duties and responsibilities

  • Oversee the day-to-day operations of the Student Information System, ensuring it meets the needs of the college.
  • Provide in-depth knowledge and support for the student record system management, including troubleshooting, user support, and system optimization.
  • Collaborate with key stakeholders across Technology and Registry to identify system improvements and address user needs.
  • Work closely with developers to plan and implement new features and system enhancements, ensuring alignment with institutional goals.
  • Support the institution’s regulatory obligations, such as HESA Data Futures, by ensuring data accuracy and system compliance.
  • Facilitate improvements to curriculum management through system enhancements and data analysis.
  • Assist with administrative tasks within the SIS, such as data integrity checks, and configuration changes.
  • Contribute to the design and development of new tools and features to support the college’s strategic objectives.
  • Act as a liaison between non-technical stakeholders and the development team, translating requirements and ensuring clear communication.


Additional duties:

  • Stay updated with the latest trends and best practices in MIS and higher education technology.
  • Provide training and support to staff members on the best practice use of the SIS.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives within the Technology and Registry functions.
