As we are a campus-based University, our students and colleagues will expect our staff to be available face to face as well as through other media and so our staff are expected to be available to work on campus. However, most teams in Human Resources operate hybrid working arrangements that allow most staff the option to work from home (in the UK) on a regular basis if they wish to, and dependent on the needs of the business. If you would like further information about this, we would be very happy to discuss with you at the interview stage. Please view the job description and person specification for a full list of the duties and essential criteria. Please attach a personal statement showing clearly how your skills and experience match the Person Specification.
