An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated and resilient individual to join the Professional Services team within the Peninsula Medical School. This role is key to supporting the development of outstanding doctors of the future.
About the Role
As Programme Administrator, you will provide high-quality, customer-focused administrative support for the Medical School, working within a dynamic and enthusiastic team based across Plymouth, Torbay, and Somerset. Our team is committed to delivering an exceptional experience for students and stakeholders throughout their journey with the University.
You will primarily support the Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (BMBS) and Physician Associate Studies programmes, focusing on curriculum delivery, assessment processes, and front-line student services. Working closely with Senior Programme Coordinators, you will also contribute flexibly across the wider team.
Key responsibilities include:
• Maintaining accurate student records and assessment data
• Assisting with placement and assessment queries
• Organising, attending, and minuting meetings
• Updating programme documentation and providing data as required
• Communicating effectively with students, academics, clinicians, and colleagues
This role is based in the student-facing Faculty Office at the John Bull Building, Plymouth Science Park, Derriford, with occasional travel to other University sites (primarily the main campus). Please note that some locations may not be easily accessible by public transport, so the ability to travel is essential.
You will need to be on-site three days per week, with flexibility for remote working when business needs allow.
For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Pete Easton or Jessica Tucker at: medicine-spc@plymouth.ac.uk
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking someone with experience working effectively in an administrative team within a customer-focused environment. Experience in a medical or educational setting would be an advantage. You should also demonstrate:
• Strong numeracy and literacy skills (typically evidenced by secondary education or equivalent experience)
• Further education attainment or equivalent experience in an administrative environment
• Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and relevant databases
• Excellent customer service and communication skills, including liaising confidently in person, by phone, and in writing
• Strong organisational and teamwork abilities, with the capacity to prioritise tasks, resolve queries using initiative, and adapt to a changing environment
For full details, please refer to the job description and person specification.

The Faculty of Health holds four Silver Athena Swan awards, which recognise our commitment to supporting gender equality within higher education.
