Centre and Visitor Co-ordinator

The Faculty of Law is seeking a Centre and Visitor Co-ordinator to join its proactive and professional administrative support team.

The Faculty of Law currently has over 80 University, Faculty and College teaching officers. Almost every area of legal interest is represented. Within its professional services team, the Faculty has 23 administrative staff, an IT team of 5 and a Legal Research Training & Communications Specialist.

Whilst this role involves routine administrative tasks, the Co-ordinator role also offers an opportunity to work on a variety of duties and to interact with a range of interesting stakeholders. Any successful candidate should therefore expect to operate in an academic environment, which may require them to manage a multitude of differing tasks simultaneously.

The role holder is the key administrative support to the Faculty's Research Centres; various visitor and exchange schemes; Director of International Strategy & Partnerships; Faculty Safety Officer; and Arthur Goodhart Visiting Professor. These responsibilities include such duties as monitoring inboxes, distribution lists, and databases; organising events, conferences, and accommodation; assisting visiting academics; and providing support to Centre Directors and staff (the further information file expands further on the tasks involved).

The Faculty therefore invites applications from enthusiastic administrators, who feel they may have the abilities required to fulfil this dynamic role and wish to become part of the Faculty's professional services team.

Once an offer of employment has been accepted, the successful candidate will be required to undergo a health assessment.

We particularly welcome applications from candidates from a BME background for this vacancy as they are currently under-represented at this level in our Faculty.

Further particulars and details of the application procedure are available at the University Job Opportunities site.  Online application is available via that site.

Closing date: 23 July 2023

Vacancy Reference No: JK37330

Salary: £25,285-£28,929
