Job Description

The role. The College is acutely aware of the implications for its funding streams of a greater role for employers in determining provision. This is a significant step-change, not simply the emergence of an additional revenue stream. We expect to appoint an individual who understands fully the future business context in which the College will operate, and the influence employers expectations should have on its further and higher education development and delivery. The person appointed will be able to demonstrate success in commercial, education and training environments and will have translated that experience into leading expansion of the College-employers interface. Success criteria will include growth in revenue but will extend also and significantly to engagement of employers in course design and delivery. Curriculum shift and the growth of new qualifications, such as Apprenticeships at all levels, will be required outcomes. The person. The post holder will have strong leadership qualities and the ability to be highly credible and convincing among both colleagues and employers. Business planning will be essential, alongside the acumen and ability to recognise and develop new opportunities. Determination and the capacity to see initiatives through to completion will balance vision and entrepreneurialism.
