Our Graig Campus is the largest of the five campuses of Coleg Sir Gâr and is based close to the village of Pwll on the South West Wales coast in Llanelli. With views over the neighbouring Gower peninsula, the Campus is a great place to study/work with a range of facilities.
There is a great feeling of community and vitality at the campus brought about by a mix of enthusiastic students studying different disciplines. They are nurtured, cared for and guided by dedicated and experienced members of staff who help them reach their maximum potential, enabling them to move to their next stage of learning, whether it is at college, university, employment or self-employment.

The Administrative Assistant will work as part of our Campus Office to provide an efficient and knowledgeable service to all learners, staff, and visitors. Some of the duties may include reception, answering the telephone, and other general administration.
Administration assistants work very closely with a range of staff across our campuses where they process college vehicle bookings, internal room bookings, and reporting of staff/student absences. In terms of financial responsibilities, some tasks may include issuing petty cash, banking, and collection of various College income such as registration fees and DBS payments.
