The Humanities Division is seeking to recruit an Administrator for the Ertegun Graduate Scholarship Programme.

The mission of the Ertegun Programme is to fund and encourage graduate study in the Humanities by Ertegun Graduate Scholars, a group of highly qualified students from throughout the world. The programme is based at the Ertegun House, a state-of-the-art facility which offers a work and study environment exclusively for the Ertegun Graduate Scholars and their administrative team.

The Administrator will be responsible for supporting, developing and delivering the non-academic aspects of the programme. This involves administrative, financial, and building management in addition to a busy events schedule ranging from student-led events to public lectures. A key focus of the role will be on outreach activities by helping to develop the Alumni Community and promoting the programme to prospective applicants from across the world.

The Administrator will be a motivated and enthusiastic individual with an interest in promoting graduate research in the humanities. You will be a self-starter with high standards in academic administration, events management, and communications, including social media. You will have strong technical skills in website development.

Working closely with the Ertegun Senior Scholar in Residence, who directs the programme, and liaising with the Ertegun Board of Overseers, you will have the opportunity to contribute to the programme’s further development and strategic growth.

This is a full-time permanent post. The post will involve some evening and weekend work.
