The Role

We’re looking for someone to join our Admissions team to support the growth of our business. You will be joining a team of people who are passionate about helping individuals to upskill and change careers.

You will have a keen interest in tech, specifically software development and/or data analysis and will quickly get to know our course portfolio so you can answer enquiries and point people in the right direction.

You will be a good listener and be able to empathise with individuals and assess which course is right for them. You will have great attention to detail and be able to help students apply for funding and ensure they are onboarded to courses in a timely manner.

You will also support our Industry Engagement Team and enrol students on to closed and bespoke courses which we run for our business clients. It’s a fast paced environment where no day is the same and there are lots of opportunities to learn, whether that’s about the business itself or sitting in on courses to understand more about what we teach and gain essential tech skills.
