You will be a part of a dedicated Professional Services team who are committed to ensuring the most positive experience for all our students, by fully supporting their learning journeys.
Duties of the Role

A full list of duties and responsibilities can be found within the jobpack.
There are two permanent, full-time positions available. A job share arrangement can be considered.
Skills and qualifications required
