We are looking for a committed individual to join the Graduate Admissions and Recruitment Office on a full-time fixed-term basis for four years. This is a new pivotal role to manage and deliver innovative and ground-breaking access and WP initiatives in graduate study.

 

The post-holder will be responsible for two key workstreams. The first will be the management and delivery, working in close collaboration with the equivalent Project Coordinator at the University of Cambridge, of a joint project, partly funded by the Office of Students and Research England, to improve access to postgraduate research for Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic students. The project aims to propose and test alternatives for the selection of research students. The second workstream will be Oxford-specific, and will include the development and management of some of Oxford’s initiatives in graduate access and widening participation.

 

This would be an excellent opportunity for candidates who can demonstrate day-to-day project management experience on large or multi-stakeholder projects, and who have a genuine interest in, and commitment to, access and WP work. As this is an emerging area of interest for the collegiate University, this is an exciting time to be involved in these projects, and there will be ample opportunity for the post-holder to shape strategies and new activity.

 

The closing date for applications is Wednesday 5 January 2022.

 

Interviews are expected to take place on Tuesday 18 January 2022.
