Reporting to the Associate Dean Partnerships and Business Development, the External Relationship and Business Development Manager plays a pivotal role in supporting partnerships across the Higher Education (HE), Further Education (FE), and industry sectors. This role is central to the faculty’s engagement with external stakeholders — including industry, community organisations, the third sector, schools and colleges (including USW’s Strategic Alliance), and Professional, Statutory and Regulatory Bodies (PSRBs).
The postholder will bring substantial experience in navigating the complexities of HE/FE and HE/industry collaboration, ensuring that partnerships are not only operationally sound but also aligned with USW’s Vision 2030’s goals for widening participation, enhancing employability, and driving regional and national growth.
This is a full time, permanent post. Benefits on offer include 35 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and closure days, family friendly policies and generous pension scheme.
The university is currently operating a hybrid-model of working. However, the successful candidate would be expected to work on campus for part of the week.
For an informal conversation about this post please contact Huw Swayne (Associate Dean Partnerships and Business Development) at huw.swayne@southwales.ac.uk
If you are a successful candidate and this position will be your first professional services role at the University (or you are currently employed by PSS Ltd), you will be employed by Professional and Support Services Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the University of South Wales, which provides services to the University and Colleges.
