Are you interested in adult learners and widening participation in higher education? Do you have experience of successful development and delivery of higher and/or degree apprenticeships?

We are also scoping future developments around our established part-time degree programmes, where these are consistent with our mission.
Through the post of Higher and Degree Apprenticeships Manager we seek to ensure excellence in this environment. You will bring a thorough understanding of the policy requirements of the Education and Skills Funding Agency and OFSTED and an ability to work strategically with programme teams, employers and professional partners to establish best practice and high quality in apprenticeship delivery both for existing programmes and in the development of new provision.
