Skills
Prospectus is excited to be working with a historic College in Oxford to recruit for a newly created role – Head of Access and Outreach.
The college, founded in 1555, is recognised for its strong academic tradition and spirit of enquiry. Rooted in a rich history, yet forward looking, the college’s purpose is founded on education, learning, excellence in teaching and research, and fostering a community. Like all colleges, it is an independent, self-governing body, which functions both as an academic institution and as a social and residential centre for its members.
Access is a strategic priority for the College and their commitment to academic excellence underpins this mission : academic talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Whilst the College have made significant progress on key access metrics, and remain dedicated to yet further progress, the ambitions of Outreach programmes extend beyond the College.
The Head of Access and Outreach will lead and coordinate the College’s established portfolio of widening participation initiatives, whilst driving growth and innovation. This is a new and strategically important post at the College and is a unique opportunity for candidates.
The successful candidate will have outstanding interpersonal skills, a relentless focus on addressing educational inequality, and an ability to translate this to the delivery of exceptionally high-quality programmes. The postholder will provide strategic leadership and operational management for a team of six permanent staff and a flexible number of student ambassadors, interns and academic staff contributing to the programmes. An ability to set a positive working culture, leading by example and manage multiple projects is essential.
