We are looking for someone with hands on experience of Student Loans Company (SLC) reporting who is ready to manage existing SLC reporting and to play a central part in the University’s preparation for, and ongoing delivery of, the Lifelong Learning Entitlement (LLE). Alongside this, you will work flexibly as part of a specialist team responsible for key statutory student data returns, including the HESA Student return.

About the role

Working within Academic Registry, you will act as the University’s operational lead for SLC reporting, ensuring that student and course data is accurate, timely and compliant with externally defined requirements. You will take ownership of SLC related activity across the student lifecycle, working closely with colleagues in Academic Registry and Student Finance to resolve issues and maintain confidence in institutional data.

A major focus of the role will be supporting the University’s implementation of the Lifelong Learning Entitlement, translating policy, guidance and technical specifications into effective operational practice. This will involve co-creating processes, advising colleagues, and supporting institutional readiness through changing funding environment.

While SLC and LLE will be your primary areas of focus, you will also contribute to the delivery and quality assurance of wider statutory student data returns, adapting to shifting priorities and regulatory change and supporting colleagues with data interpretation and assurance work.

About you

We are looking for someone who brings practical experience along with specialist knowledge, and who is confident working in a regulated, deadline driven environment.

Experience of supporting regulatory change, contributing to HESA or other statutory returns, or working with emerging funding models would be advantageous, but a willingness to learn and adapt is essential.

We wish to appoint a Professional Doctorate Programme Officer who will lead the administrative team supporting students on the Doctorate in Education (EdD), Doctorate in Health (DHealth) and Doctorate in Policy Research and Practice (DPRP)

About the role

Professional doctorate programmes allow experienced professionals to develop their expertise and study for a doctorate without having to take a full career break. They are part-time distance learning programmes, with students attending the University of Bath for short term blocks of teaching.

• part of the wider Doctoral College and will work collaboratively with academic and other professional service colleagues, to support and enhance the experience of all applicants to, and students on, the programme.

About you

The role comprises an exciting mix of both taught and research student administration. Recognising that this mix of experience is rare, we welcome applications from colleagues with a range of different backgrounds (not just from HE), who, whilst may not have direct experience of such programmes, can demonstrate an ability to adapt to new challenges.

We are looking for someone who:

• has excellent organisational skills
• can work to deadlines on their own initiative
• has the ability to learn new systems and procedures
• is keen to proactively identify and implement positive changes
• has excellent communication skills, and who can engage with the wide range of individuals and groups
• is able to mentor and motivate the programme administrators, who they will line manage, to deliver their tasks and develop their skills

You’ll build strong relationships with student representatives, support feedback processes, and help identify when students may need additional support, signposting them to relevant services. You’ll also contribute to Orientation, pre-arrival communications, and activities that help new students integrate smoothly.

Beyond this, you’ll support engagement and community-building initiatives, working with colleagues to deliver social, networking, and learning support activities. You’ll also assist with student-led initiatives such as mentoring schemes and peer-to-peer sessions, helping to foster a vibrant and supportive MBA community.

About you 

We’re looking for someone who is warm, approachable, and confident working with a wide range of people. You’ll be highly organised and accurate in your work, with a strong commitment to doing things properly and maintaining excellent administrative standards. The role calls for someone who remains calm under pressure, adapts quickly to changing circumstances, and can prioritise effectively when demands are high.

You’ll be motivated by helping others succeed and by creating a positive, supportive environment for students and colleagues alike. Professionalism and discretion are essential, as you’ll often be trusted with sensitive information and situations that require tact and good judgement. Strong communication skills are key, along with exceptional attention to detail and a genuine service mindset that shapes the way you interact with everyone you support.

Closing Date: 18 May 2026

Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: £31,236 to £37,694

Role

The Digital Portfolio Director will lead the University of Bath’s Digital Foundations Portfolio—a £20–30 million, five-year transformational programme that underpins the University’s strategic priorities and impacts every department and function. This is a rare opportunity to define and deliver digital transformation at scale, shaping how technology, people, and processes come together to create a connected, innovative, and future-ready institution.

In this role, you will:

• Set the vision and operating model for digital transformation, building frameworks and governance from the ground up.
• Lead a complex portfolio spanning research computing, education technology, student and staff experience platforms, and foundational infrastructure.
• Drive measurable benefits, ensuring projects deliver tangible improvements to staff and student experiences.
• Engage senior leadership and stakeholders, managing relationships across diverse groups and key third-party partners such as Infosys.
• Champion cultural change, embedding new ways of working, building organisational capability, and fostering innovation.

This is not a traditional portfolio management role—it requires a visionary leader who thrives on complexity, combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, and is passionate about making a real difference. You will have the autonomy to shape what good looks like, influence the University’s digital future, and position Bath as a sector leader in digital transformation.

About You

You are a strategic leader with hands-on delivery experience, passionate about driving complex change and digital transformation. You have a proven track record of designing and delivering organisation-wide change programmes in large, complex environments, underpinned by expert knowledge of best practice in change management. Your background spans both digital and change projects, where you have managed multiple concurrent initiatives with intricate interdependencies and diverse stakeholders. You combine strategic vision with operational agility—setting direction while actively engaging in delivery, removing blockers and accelerating progress. You thrive in complexity, embrace innovation, and have a builder’s mindset—creating new frameworks rather than relying on pre-defined models. With exceptional leadership and communication skills, you inspire teams, influence senior stakeholders, and maintain relentless focus on delivery and measurable impact.
