Job details

Are you looking for a role where you can help us deliver change and make a difference to the student and staff experience?

We are seeking a candidate to lead change and continuous improvement activities, working comfortably with technical experts, business process owners, and practitioners. This role will initially focus on our strategic project to implement a new student information system (SIS), leading activities such as communication, engagement, training plans, and supporting our future user community. As the SIS project transitions to business as usual, so will this role, helping to embed evolution into our ways of working with the new SIS.

About you

You are an excellent communicator, compassionate, and able to tailor activities for various groups. You will use your influencing and negotiation skills to help us be ambitious and empower teams to deliver efficient and effective services supporting the student journey. You will lead various ‘business as usual’ projects, applying your planning and analytical skills to shape our work to meet UWE’s objectives and inform decision-making.

Our employee benefits include competitive pay, generous annual leave, a career average pension scheme, retail savings, onsite nursery, and opportunities for training and development.

We value diversity and encourage applications from all backgrounds, especially from the global majority, as we are currently under-represented in this area. We are also a Disability Confident employer and welcome applications from candidates with disabilities.
