Overview
Student Outcomes Manager (Attainment) – Strand, London, WC2R 2LS
About us:
The King’s community is dedicated to the service of society. King’s Strategic Vision 2029 sets out our vision for the future, shaped around five priority areas: educate to inspire and improve; research to inform and innovate; serve to shape and transform; a civic university at the heart of London; and an international community that services the world. Our ambitious Education Strategy sets out the actions that we must take to transform how we teach, how and where our students learn and how we support them during their time with us.
The Student Transition and Outcomes Department works to address the sector-wide and institutional factors and barriers that contribute to lower rates of attainment, continuation and progression for students at King’s. We work collaboratively across the King’s community to provide an inclusive student experience, with a focus on traditionally underrepresented student groups.
We are part of the Students & Education Directorate, a collection of wide-ranging professional services in place to support King’s students and their education. As a directorate we manage the student lifecycle from application to graduation and beyond, to ensure a coherent and seamless student experience and effective administrative processes, working closely with King’s faculties to do so.
About the role:
The Student Outcomes Manager (Attainment) will lead a change management approach to support the King’s community to effectively tackle structural inequality in education. The role will drive activity which contributes to the closing the attainment gap between BME and white students and will support the faculties in creating an equitable student experience.
This is an exciting opportunity for candidates looking to play a key role in fostering an inclusive culture at King’s and supporting the outcomes of underrepresented students, and who wish to utilise their skills and expertise in project management and stakeholder engagement to support an equitable student experience. This is an opportunity to grow your skills in change management, particularly with respect to changing organisational culture.
We encourage applications from candidates who have experience from both within and outside of the Higher Education sector where they can demonstrate the skills needed to succeed in this role.
This is a full time position and you will be offered an indefinite contract.
