Academic Officer

The Academic Office at Christ Church is seeking to appoint an Academic Officer.

Christ Church is one of the largest of the Oxford colleges and has evolved over five centuries. Its junior members, both undergraduate (over 400) and graduate students (over 200), cover almost all the major academic disciplines in the Sciences, Humanities and Social Sciences, as do its senior academic staff (around 60). The Academic Office is responsible for providing administrative support for all areas of the College’s academic functions, under the overall responsibility of the Senior Censor (an academic and College Officer whose role is similar to that of a Senior Tutor in other Oxford colleges), and the line management of the Academic Registrar.

The role of Academic Officer (Student Progression) requires an enthusiastic and motivated individual to play an integral part in the effective running of a busy professional office. The Academic Officer will undertake a broad range of tasks which contribute to the smooth running of the College’s academic administration and hold specific responsibility for certain critical systems and processes which underpin this.

It is a varied role for which we seek a self-motivated, highly organised individual, with meticulous attention to detail and a methodical, accurate and efficient approach to the management of processes and record-keeping.

The post is offered on a permanent, full time basis, 37.5 hours per week. Salary is University Scale Grade 5 (currently £28,759-£33,966, with a discretionary range up to £37,099).

Further particulars, including instructions about how to apply, may be downloaded from https://www.chch.ox.ac.uk/vacancies.

The deadline for applications is 12 noon on Monday 29^th July 2024.

Christ Church is committed to equality and we value the diversity of our staff and students. It is our policy and practice that entry into employment and progression within employment will be determined only by criteria which are related to the duties of a particular post and the relevant salary scale. No applicant or member of staff will be treated less favourably than another because of their age, disability, ethnicity, marital or civil partnership status, parental status, religion or belief, gender or sexual orientation.
