The Role and Duties

We are seeking a self-motivated, flexible and committed individual to take responsibility for the planning and management of accreditation projects working in partnership with the Dean of EBS and academic and professional services staff across the School and University. You will oversee and ensure the effective delivery of all activities in relation to the School’s accreditation process, taking particular responsibility for institutional and School accreditation bids (AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS).  You will also be responsible for leading communications with accrediting bodies, the preparation of the requisite documentation, and the delivery of successful accreditation visits.

You will have excellent knowledge and understanding of quality assurance and accreditation standards, with an awareness of the key challenges faced in the Higher Education Sector. You will have experience of identifying areas for improvement and recommending solutions.

Extensive and high level administrative experience in a challenging and complex role is also essential. The successful applicant will ideally be fully conversant with relevant accrediting body standards or capable of coming fully up to speed within a three-month period, and be capable of both coordinating, and engaging in a wide range of frontline tasks, both strategic and basic administrative, relevant to the accreditation journey.
