About You
You are ambitious, inclusive, innovative, collaborative, and enterprising. You are interested in technology, are a fast learner, and possibly, but not exclusively, from a teaching, training, or mentoring background. You have high attention to detail and have comprehensive IT literacy. You have excellent communication skills and are able to work both independently and as part of a team.
Where is this role based?
This post is based at our lively Frenchay campus where we have invested in the latest facilities and resources to give both our staff and students access to everything they need to succeed. Although based at Frenchay campus, this role will include occasional working at our City Campus in Bristol city centre.

Add your individuality to ours
UWE Bristol recognises the power of a truly diverse university community. We are proud to be part of a vibrant, multicultural city that celebrates diversity.

Please note
Early applications are encouraged as we reserve the right to close the advert should we feel able to appoint appropriate candidates as these vacancies are temporary. UWE Bristol is a campus-based University and it is vital to our success and the delivery of an outstanding experience for our students that our campuses are dynamic and vibrant places to learn and spend time. This role is therefore campus-based for 3 days per week with the opportunity to work from home on the remaining days. To ensure fairness and equity, all salary offers will be made in line with the University's salary assessment guidelines and will be based on your relevant skills and experience. We are unable to provide sponsorship for this role under the Home Office Skilled Worker visa route. Candidates must therefore be able to provide their own right to work in the UK.
