The University of London
The University of London is a leading UK provider of distance and digital education internationally, offering programmes to 45,000 students in 190 countries around the world. Although proudly rooted in London, our community and impact are global. We are a national leader in the humanities, and we promote their value to society and the economy through knowledge creation and exchange.
We are also a federation of 17 world class higher education institutions, with collaboration at the heart of our ethos. The University of London federation is a collective community of more than 240,000 learners and 50,000 staff, delivering world-leading research across all disciplines.
Our passion for increasing access to education and mobilising the collective power and expertise of the federation is central to our ability to transform lives around the world and address the global challenges of the future.
The Role
The Admissions Officer will play a key role in assessing the eligibility of applications for admission onto the University of London Worldwide programmes. Working collaboratively with colleagues, responsibilities will include: preparing decision letters for applicants including offers of registration, responding to enquiries from a number of stakeholders and preparing papers for The Admissions Panel for applicants that do not meet the general entrance requirements.
The Student Services directorate is exceptionally busy and it may not be possible to take long periods of leave at certain parts of the year, but every effort will be made to accommodate reasonable requests. Further information on hours of work, the role and person specification can be found in the attached job description below.

The University reserves the right to close the vacancy earlier than the published end date should it receive sufficient applications to warrant earlier shortlisting. Preferential consideration will be given to the University redeployment pool.
The University of London is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive working environment where we can all be ourselves and succeed. We particularly encourage applications from members of Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic communities as this group is currently under-represented in senior levels within the University. All appointments will be made on merit, based on the criteria identified in the job description.
