The Department of Biochemical Engineering is looking for 2 x Teaching and Learning Administrators to support the delivery of our Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes. You will manage key aspects of programme administration, including student records, timetabling, module allocations, and assessment processes. The role involves coordinating induction activities, handling student enquiries, monitoring attendance, and maintaining compliance with UCL policies. You will also contribute to continuous improvement initiatives and provide committee support, ensuring an excellent student experience. Important Note About our EASE (Education Administration and Student Experience) roles UCL and The Engineering Faculty are currently reviewing professional service staff roles as part of the Education Administration and Student Experience (EASE) programme. This means that some roles may change in the future -- including things like job titles, responsibilities, or terms and conditions. For this reason, many of the EASE roles that we are currently recruiting are fixed term. These roles provide essential support while we go through this change process. Where a role is fixed term we will make this clear on the advert and during the interview and offer processes.
