digital learning tools. Working closely with the wider Graduate Studies
Support team, you’ll also support key departmental events, meetings and
committees.





You will have strong administrative experience, excellent communication
skills, and a proactive, detail-oriented approach to your work. You’ll be
confident managing a varied workload with competing priorities, and able to
work both independently and collaboratively. Strong IT skills and the ability
to quickly learn new systems are essential.
