Subject to HMRC guidelines and the availability of funding, a relocation allowance may be offered Background Information As the oldest University in the English-speaking world, Oxford is a place where the past, present and future exist side by side. Behind us we have nearly a thousand years of teaching, learning and advancing the boundaries of knowledge. Today we are consistently recognised as one of the world’s leading research-intensive universities, committed to helping solve some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Unsurprisingly, we have ambitious plans for our future. Our mission, to advance learning by teaching and research and disseminate this by every means, is delivered across a dynamic ecosystem of 39 constituent colleges and 4 permanent private halls, , and a range of academic divisions, departments and faculties. We offer a wide array of undergraduate, postgraduate programmes and Continuing Education courses across Humanities, Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences, Medical Sciences, and Social Sciences. This encompasses the courses offered by the schools within these disciplines, for example the Saïd Business School and the Blavatnik School of Government. The collegiate system is a distinguishing feature of Oxford. Each college has its own unique character that fosters a sense of community and belonging, providing students with a supportive environment in which they can learn and grow. Students belong both to a college and a department, enabling them to benefit from the resources and networks of each. Our international reach, and diverse community, enable us to attract students and scholars from around the world. This provides a stimulating and intellectually challenging environment, facilitating the exchange of ideas and knowledge, and the sharing of different lived experiences among the community. Beyond the University, the city itself is steeped in history, featuring stunning architecture and buildings of significant historic interest, beautiful gardens and parks, libraries and museums. Oxford is superbly situated, with excellent transport links to London, the wider country and the rest of the world, thanks to two mainline rail stations, an extensive coach network, and its proximity to two international airports. The city is also well-known for its primary and secondary educational offering, with excellent options for schooling, which attracts many families to move to the area. We are proud to be a significant part of this vibrant, diverse and culturally rich environment and community. Alumni Engagement at Oxford The University of Oxford has 350,000+ alumni in over 180 countries. Our global network is as extraordinary as it is diverse, and comprises people working in every sector imaginable – from politics and business, to medicine, the arts, research and innovation, technology, entrepreneurship and countless more. Our alumni community is the University’s largest stakeholder group, and our best ambassadors both here in the UK and around the world. Our aim is for alumni to remain engaged and involved with the life of the institution long after they have completed their studies, and their ongoing relationship with us is fostered through strong connections with Oxford’s constituent colleges, faculties and the central team in Development and Alumni Engagement (DAE). Alumni are encouraged to stay connected to Oxford through a broad range of opportunities, benefits and services at local and global levels, including the chance to continue their lifelong learning and development through a variety of educational programmes. Alumni also play a key role in the life of the University. We encourage alumni to share their time, expertise, networks and resources by participating in mentoring initiatives, offering internships to current students, supporting research and scholarship initiatives, and contributing to the University in our fundraising endeavours. Alumni play an active part in shaping the future of the University, and in the global Oxford community to which they belong. The University of Oxford Alumni Board is an informed and engaged global volunteer community of advocates, supporters and influencers who contribute to the long-term advancement of the University and the wider alumni community by sharing their expertise, experience and insights. The Board comprises alumni who bring a wide range of perspectives and expertise to the table – geographic, generational and professional – as well as development and alumni professionals from across the collegiate University. They are a Board of changemakers, helping our Alumni team and the wider institution keep our fingers on the pulse of the community. Board members not only help us to shape how we engage and serve alumni, but also to determine how the alumni body can best remain engaged with the University and support its strategic priorities. In addition to the Board, there are over 180 alumni groups around the world, as well as a number of shared-interest groups. Development and Alumni Engagement (DAE) DAE is led by Liesl Elder who, as Chief Development and Alumni Engagement Officer, serves on the University Senior Leadership team and reports to the Vice-Chancellor.

Within DAE, a highly committed Alumni team supports the strategic priorities of the University and engages with colleagues across Development, Careers, Admissions and Student Services, as well as across the collegiate network and our satellite offices in New York, Hong Kong and Tokyo. This aligns with our vision to work as together for the benefit of staff, students and alumni, as well as society at a local, regional, national and global scale. 2 The office is one of the central administrative departments of the University, collectively known as University Administration and Services. Due to the nature of its work, DAE collaborates closely with a number of other units and teams, particularly Public Affairs, Finance, Research and Legal.
