About us
We are the independent regulator of higher education in England. We aim to ensure that every student, whatever their background, has a fulfilling experience of higher education that enriches their lives and careers.
We’re proud of our people, our culture and the benefits we offer. We care about supporting and developing our staff. At the OfS we want to create a welcoming and engaging working environment which is free from discrimination.
We’re looking for skilled, committed people who care about students and their experience of higher education. Join us and you’ll be part of an energetic, forward-looking organisation with high ambitions and big opportunities for our people.
About the role
We’re looking for an effective leader to shape how the Office for Students (OfS) plans, delivers and improves its work. As Head of Planning and Programmes, you will lead three core areas:
• Business planning – developing a clear, prioritised and deliverable OfS business plan aligned to our strategy.
• Programme and project management – acting as custodian of our project lifecycle and ensuring projects and programmes deliver real impact: on time, on budget, and to the right quality.
• Operational improvement – advising senior leaders on change, resource allocation, and continuous improvement.
You will lead a small team of expert project and resource managers and work closely with colleagues across finance, organisational development, and the wider organisation.
For information: the OfS does not hold a UK Visa & Immigration (UKVI) Skilled Worker Sponsor Licence.
