Full Job Description

The Timetabling & Examinations team is a busy team whose core focus and responsibility is the management and delivery of the academic timetable and the arrangement and co-ordination of examinations for the University.

Alongside business as usual and project activity, supporting key elements of the Education and Employability Strategy, we are about to embark on a critical transition to a new timetabling system over the next 12-18 months, a significant challenge but one which provides the opportunity to further enhance the timetable product and the offer to our staff and students.

So, what will the role involve?

Reporting to a Timetabling Officer in a fast-paced working environment with day-to-day administrative duties including dealing with student enquiries, maintaining the team and designated inboxes and being the first point of contact for all room bookings enquiries and requests. You will support the Timetabling Officer and the wider team in the creation and maintenance of the academic timetables from initial planning stage through to release.

Timetabling Assistants perform a critical role in underpinning the team's delivery of the academic timetables and are key members of the team with direct contact with students and academic staff.

You will mainly be working with the Salford Business School, creating the student timetables. We work closely with academic staff to build the best possible timetabling experience for both students and staff and it is important to have the ability to build and maintain professional relationships with colleagues.

We are looking for somebody who has excellent organisational skills, with a track record in delivering customer/student-facing services. It is essential that you can demonstrate attention to detail and have the ability to handle large volumes of student and programme data with a high degree of accuracy. This opportunity would suit candidates who have experience in an administrative role preferably in the education sector and are looking to gain experience and develop a career in academic administration/timetabling.

This is a very exciting time to be a part of the Timetabling Team at the University of Salford and you will be able to assist in shaping the future of student and staff timetables with the implementation of the new timetable system and the opportunities that brings.
