This position offers hands-on experience in corporate governance while allowing you to develop broader administrative and management skills. You will work closely with senior University staff, gaining valuable exposure to decision-making at the highest levels—experience that will support your career progression in governance and senior University administration.
Through supporting a diverse range of subsidiary companies— including recruitment and advertising services, conference centres, international ventures, and the innovation and property-focused businesses of the Science Park—you will gain a fascinating insight into the University’s varied commercial and strategic activities.

You will be educated to degree level and ideally hold a professional qualification from the Chartered Governance Institute (CGIUKI) or have equivalent experience.
With excellent interpersonal skills, you will confidently engage with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, handling sensitive matters with discretion. You will be highly organised, able to manage multiple priorities under pressure using your own initiative, and maintain meticulous attention to detail.
Whether you already have experience in staff management or are eager to develop leadership skills, this role offers an exciting opportunity to grow in a supportive environment.
Support towards achieving a CGIUKI professional qualification will be available if required.
