O pozici
We are an aspirational and multi-award-winning university, delivering rapid growth with ambitious plans to disrupt the HE sector through our passion for innovation and digital education. Our vision is to become the first-choice university for career-focused lifelong learners worldwide, ensuring that everyone, everywhere can access higher education.
There has never been a more exciting time to join Arden University, as we expand into new disciplines, forge worldwide partnerships, and expand our locations.
We are seeking an Academic Administrator to support the delivery of applicant admissions interview activity across the University at a time of significant growth. The scale and complexity of our academic interview process has expanded considerably, with over 12,000 interviews delivered to date across both on-campus and online formats. Interviews now take place daily online, alongside frequent in-person sessions across our UK campuses.
This is a key operational role that will provide dedicated administrative support to ensure the smooth, efficient, and compliant running of the interview process at an institutional level. You will be responsible for coordinating interview schedules, managing academic staff rotas, and acting as a central point of contact for all academic admissions interview-related activity. The role requires close collaboration with academic teams, Business Development, and wider professional services to manage demand, respond to changes, and maintain a high-quality candidate experience.
You will play an important role in supporting the ongoing delivery and continuous improvement of the interview process, ensuring that systems, communications, and processes remain effective at scale. This includes supporting training coordination, monitoring activity, and helping to maintain consistency and quality across all interview delivery. Please note this is not a student-facing role.
This is an excellent opportunity for an organised and proactive administrator who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys working collaboratively across teams. Your contribution will be critical in enabling the University to deliver a robust, scalable, and high-quality admissions process, while allowing academic colleagues to focus on their core teaching and leadership responsibilities.
