The Role
We are seeking a dynamic, innovative and inspirational Student Experience Enrichment Coordinator to join our Student Experience team.

The successful candidate will lead on the planning, coordination and delivery of a diverse enrichment programme, working closely with students, staff, external partners and the wider community. You will play a key role in developing activities, events and initiatives that inspire participation, celebrate diversity and support student success both inside and outside the classroom.
You will possess excellent administrative and organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities, coordinate events and maintain accurate records to a high standard.

We are looking for someone who is proactive, creative and solution focused, with strong problem-solving and leadership skills. The ability to motivate and inspire staff and students, whilst working collaboratively within a fast-paced environment, is vital.
This is an exciting opportunity to make a meaningful difference to the student experience and contribute positively to a vibrant and inclusive College community.
