You will be confident managing competing priorities, proactive in identifying issues, and comfortable working collaboratively across teams. A positive, solution-focused approach and a commitment to accuracy are essential.
You will be based at our main campus and will form part of the wider Business Services Department, supporting the College’s commitment to high-quality, compliant apprenticeship delivery.
