We are looking to appoint a Home Recruitment Officer to join our Home Recruitment team within Student Recruitment at the University of Nottingham. This is a varied and rewarding role that combines working with 16–18-year-olds and mature students at schools and colleges across the UK.

You will support the university’s recruitment and widening participation strategies within the UK, to support aspirations and attract prospective students to the University. This includes building and maintaining relationships with a caseload of schools and colleges from the independent and state sector. You will deliver advice and guidance presentations in schools and online, alongside managing the planning and delivery of projects such as taster programmes, teachers’ conferences and student ambassador schemes.

You will frequently travel to schools and colleges across the UK, some of which are difficult to get to via public transport; therefore, you must have a full driving licence. You will have a varied workload, including regularly attending evening events with some overnight stays, and occasional weekend work. You can receive overtime payments for a proportion of these additional hours, and equivalent time off work for the rest.

Based at our Jubilee Campus, the department supports hybrid working with arrangements agreed locally. In practice this means the team balances the working week with some time spent on campus or delivering in schools, and some time spent working from home to support flexibility, recognising that individuals and teams can be effective across different working environments.

You should be a motivated individual with an understanding of the journey to higher education, and experience of working with young people. You will have outstanding written and verbal communication skills to engage with a wide range of learners, families and teachers. You will also be experienced in delivering and adapting presentations, organising events, as well as having excellent IT skills to deliver online. You will be skilled in building and developing a strong rapport with colleagues, academic staff, and student ambassadors, working effectively as part of a team to manage a varied and demanding workload.

The post is offered on a full time (36.25 hours per week).

It is a condition of this post that satisfactory enhanced disclosure is obtained from the ‘Disclosure and Barring Service’.
