Our Administrative Assistant is on maternity leave until 1 May 2025 which provides an excellent opportunity for an experienced administrator to join the Faculty of Philosophy and develop their administrative skills in Higher Education.

This role will suit an individual who enjoys being part of a busy office and working in an environment of changing priorities.
