University Registrar

The University of West London (UWL) takes pride in the exceptional learning experience it provides for all its students alongside its strong professional connections and impactful applied research.   It inspires students to become ‘creative professionals’ and connects them to exciting and rewarding careers, with 98% in employment within 6 months of leaving the institution.  This combined with investment in the estate of over £150million and a silver rating in the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) makes it a leading modern university in London.

A new role of University Registrar has been created to bring together several professional service areas into a cohesive, forward-looking unit that will support the University in continuing on this trajectory.   The appointee will work closely with the Vice-Chancellor’s Executive and Senior Management Group and will line manage Registry Services, Academic Services and the administrators based in the Schools/College of the University.    The central objective will be to lead the continued enhancement of a strong customer service ethos, in support of delivering a sector-leading student experience, whilst ensuring compliance and best-practice.

Ideal candidates will be proven leaders with demonstrable experience in a senior academic administrative role in a UK university or higher education institution.   They will have a track record of managing operations with a strong orientation to enhancing the student experience, combined with a deep understanding of the governance and compliance requirements of UK Higher Education.
