This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a team supporting two Biology courses: our 4-year MBiol undergraduate course and our DPhil in Biology. You will provide a professional, effective level of support, respecting confidentiality and regulatory processes and contributing to the Department’s commitment to inclusivity.

 

Your duties will focus on support for Years 2 and 3 of the MBiol, including organisation comprehensive administrative support for examinations. You will also provide more general support for the student administration team during times of peak workload. You will have the opportunity to undertake training as required to enhance your ability to perform well in your role, including GDPR training to manage confidential data.

 

You will have outstanding team working skills, a ‘can do’ attitude and the ability to process a high volume of transactional work accurately and on time. Good IT literacy and the ability to handle confidential information with discretion are essential. Administrative experience in a higher education environment is desirable, but not essential.

 

The University of Oxford is committed to equality and valuing diversity. All applicants will be judged on merit, according to the selection criteria.

 

The post is available full time or part time (minimum 80% of full time).

 

The location of work will be in the Department of Biology, Oxford. Some hybrid working is available, in agreement with the line manager.

 

 

 If you would like to discuss the role and the department informally, please contact Wendy Yeates, Undergraduate Officer, via email: wendy.yeates@biology.ox.ac.uk 

 

 You will be required to upload a CV and a supporting statement, setting out how you meet the selection criteria, and the names and contact details of two referees as part of your online application. 

 

 The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Monday 13 May 2024. 

 

 Interviews will be held on Friday 24 May 2024.
