Based within the HR Services Team, the HR UKVI Administrative Officer will play a crucial role in enabling the university to deliver full compliance with UKVI regulations and ensuring all staff have permission to work in the UK.
You will assist in all UKVI reporting, the sponsorship process for successful candidates to obtain their visa, the visa extension process for existing employees, undertaking regular audits, maintaining records and ensuring compliance at all times.
You will assist in implementing and embedding the necessary changes to policy and process of the Points Based system.
This is an opportunity to develop skills in data analysis and regulatory compliance, driving change and developing the role in a customer-friendly, pro-active manner.
This is an exciting time to be part of the University’s strategic plans (This is our time: University of Greenwich Strategy 2021- 2030 | Documents ) through the delivery of professional and effective human resources services.
You will be joining a growing HR Team who are expanding to meet the University's continued growth.

We look forward to receiving applications from candidates who are able to demonstrate a passion for and a clear commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion as well as the mission, values and aspirations of the University.
The university welcomes people from diverse and underrepresented communities who can help the university to achieve its mission. We do this through taking positive action such as encouraging applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic, disabled and LGBT+ people.
As part of our commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, Time to Change Employer Pledge/Mentally Healthy Universities, we are committed to promoting and supporting the physical and mental health of all our staff, and removing barriers to improve inclusion.
We encourage applicants to disclose experience of mental health problems so we can support them fully during our recruitment process and make any necessary reasonable adjustments. Any information disclosed will be kept confidential and separate from the job application form.
We are making significant strides to understand and continuously improve our employees’ experience and we are committed to implementing progressive diversity talent management.
Due to the nature of this role, and the fact that it will require Home Office clearance to access the UKVI Sponsor Management System, we are unfortunately unable to consider any applicant who will require a Certificate of Sponsorship under Tier 2 of the Points Based Immigration System. The successful applicant will be required to undertake a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check.
