Christ’s College seeks to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced individual to the role of Undergraduate Tutorial Administrator, providing high-quality administrative support within the College’s Tutorial Office.
Working as part of a busy and professional team, the postholder will liaise with a broad range of stakeholders, including College staff, Fellows, students, and colleagues across the University. The role encompasses support for the full undergraduate lifecycle, from arrival, matriculation, academic progression, assessment, and student welfare, contributing to the effective delivery of a high standard of student support.
The Tutorial Team is responsible for providing comprehensive support to all Christ’s students. The Senior Tutor, Professor Tom Monie, has overall responsibility for students’ educational and welfare provision within the College, supported by the Tutorial Office Manager, Nicolas Watkins-Wright, who leads the administrative team.
The successful candidate will demonstrate excellent organisational and communication skills, together with a professional, discreet, and sensitive approach to handling confidential matters. The ability to work effectively and pragmatically in a complex and varied environment is essential. Experience within a University or College environment is desirable but not essential, as a strong set of transferable skills can provide an excellent foundation for success in this role.
The postholder will be expected to provide efficient, accurate, and reliable administrative support across a wide range of student-related matters, including academic and welfare provision. Strong IT proficiency is essential, particularly in the use of Microsoft Word and Excel.
