Dean of Student Experience \n \n Job Responsibilities \n \n The College \n UK Management College (UKMC) is a private, widening-participation higher education provider established in 2016, delivering degree programmes with an integrated Foundation Year in partnership with universities that act as the awarding bodies — the University of Wolverhampton (principal partner), Canterbury Christ Church University, Arts University Bournemouth and Health \n Sciences University — across campuses in Manchester (College House, Salford and Abarna Campus), Derby, Newcastle (North Shields) and Sunderland. The College serves a predominantly mature, local and first-in-family student community, many of whom balance study with work, caring and financial pressures. Its student-support model is therefore central, not peripheral, to its mission: \n success is measured by retention, continuation, completion and progression, and the College’s support ecosystem — organised around quality, engagement, support, wellbeing, inclusion and employability — exists to deliver those outcomes for every student, at every campus, on equal terms. \n \n Role Purpose \n The Dean of Student Experience is the College’s senior leader for academic services and the student experience. The post holder holds executive responsibility for the departments and functions that surround and enable course delivery: the Wellbeing Department; the Personal Academic Tutor (PAT) team; student engagement (non-academic); academic language and learning; employability, careers and student outcomes; research and knowledge exchange; and academic integrity. The purpose of the role is to ensure that every student — whatever their starting point, campus or mode of engagement — receives consistent, differentiated and effective support to engage, persist, achieve and progress. \n The Dean of Student Experience reports to the Associate Provost / Provost and works in close partnership with the Academic Dean, who leads course delivery, and with the Quality and Compliance department, with whom the post holder shares responsibility for evidencing that the College’s support for students meets the requirements of the Office for Students (OfS), partner \n universities (awarding bodies) and other regulatory bodies. The two Deans are jointly accountable for the College’s student outcomes: continuation, completion and progression at or above the College’s institutional targets, which are themselves set above OfS numerical baselines. \n \n Reporting and Organisational Position \n Reports to: Associate \n Provost / Provost. \n \n Line manages: Head of Wellbeing; Personal Academic Tutor (PAT) Manager; Head of Student Engagement (Non-Academic); Academic Language and Learning Lead; Head of Employability and \n Student Outcomes (Student Engagement and Career Development); Head of Research \n and Knowledge Exchange; and Head of Academic Integrity — together with the teams that report through them at every campus. \n \n Works with: The Academic Dean and the academic delivery structure (Associate / Assistant Deans, Course Directors, Academic Heads of Campus, Module Leaders); the Head of Quality and Compliance; the Academic Registrar and Academic Services; the Head of Planning and Student Systems; the Designated Safeguarding Lead; the Head of Human Resources; partner universities (awarding bodies); and the Student Association. \n \n Committees: Senior oversight of the Student Experience, Engagement and Employability Committee, the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee and the Research, Ethics and Knowledge Exchange Sub-Committee; member of Academic Board and the Faculty Committee; represents the student-experience portfolio at the Executive Board as required. \n \n Key Responsibilities \n A. Strategic Leadership of the Student Experience \n\n • Provide institution-wide leadership for the student experience and academic services, ensuring a single coherent support ecosystem across all campuses in which every service is oriented to the College’s outcome measures: retention, continuation, completion and \n progression.\n • Lead, develop and performance-manage the Heads of Department and functional leads within the portfolio: agree annual objectives and departmental plans, hold regular documented one-to-ones, conduct appraisals, and hold each department to account for its performance, compliance and student outcomes.\n, • Ensure support is differentiated according to need but never unequal — with proactive, tailored support for at-risk students, stretch for high performers, and flexible arrangements for carers, mature learners and disabled students — in line with the College’s equity principle \n and Access and Participation commitments.\n • Ensure parity of the student experience across every campus, monitoring service coverage, caseloads and student feedback by site and addressing any campus-level variation.\n, • Advise the Associate Provost / Provost, the Executive Board and the Board of Directors on student-experience performance, capacity and risk, ensuring service capacity is planned ahead of student-number growth, never behind it.\n, • Deputise for the Provost on student-experience matters as required.\n\n B. Wellbeing, Safeguarding and Inclusion \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the Wellbeing Department through the Head of Wellbeing: endorse its strategy, policies and Office Performance Plan; review its KPI dashboards, audit findings and risk reports; and escalate material risks to the Associate Provost / Provost and senior committees.\n, • Ensure the consistent implementation of reasonable adjustments and learning support plans across all campuses, working with the Academic Dean’s delivery structure so that adjustments are embedded in teaching and assessment, in compliance with the Equality Act 2010.\n, • Ensure effective arrangements for safeguarding and Prevent within the portfolio, working with the Designated Safeguarding Lead and the Safeguarding and Prevent Committee, and provide senior leadership during escalated crises and critical incidents.\n, • Champion equality, diversity and inclusion across the student experience, providing senior oversight of the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee’s student-facing agenda and ensuring inclusive practice is embedded in every service.\n, • Ensure lessons from wellbeing-related complaints, appeals and serious cases are learned, recorded and fed into continuous improvement.\n\n C. Personal Academic Tutoring (PAT) \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the Personal Academic Tutor model through the PAT Manager, ensuring every student is assigned a Personal Academic Tutor and receives differentiated academic, pastoral and practical support in line with the Personal Tutor Policy.\n, • Ensure PATs monitor engagement, attendance and confidence through the engagement dashboard and KPI risk matrix, act on early warning signs of disengagement, and lead timely interventions in partnership with the Wellbeing Team, module tutors and Course Directors.\n, • Ensure the PAT function delivers its academic-skills programme — induction, workshops on academic writing, referencing, time management and digital literacy — consistently across \n campuses, aligned with the Foundation Year Academic Skills provision.\n • Oversee PAT workforce planning, caseload allocation and cross-campus consistency, ensuring the data-driven deployment model matches PAT resource to enrolment, risk and learner need.\n, • Champion PAT staff development, supporting progression towards the PGCert and Advance HE Fellowship in line with institutional targets, and evaluate PAT performance and impact against retention, engagement and student-satisfaction measures.\n\n D. Student Engagement, Belonging and Student \n Voice \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the non-academic engagement function through the Head of Student Engagement (Non-Academic), ensuring a rich programme of activities, events and communities that build belonging at every campus.\n, • Ensure the Student Engagement, Belonging and Academic Challenge Framework is delivered and monitored, with engagement and belonging metrics reviewed termly and acted upon.\n, • Ensure the student voice is heard and answered: support the Student Association, student representation, the Student Staff Liaison Committee, surveys and mid-module feedback, with visible “you said, we did” responses across the College.\n, • Ensure induction and transition support helps every new student — including Foundation Year entrants — settle, connect and engage from the earliest weeks.\n\n E. Academic Language and Learning \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the Academic Language and Learning Lead and the developing Academic Language and Learning Hub, ensuring effective language and study-skills support for all students, including those for whom English is not a first language.\n, • Ensure the English Proficiency Framework is implemented and monitored across all courses and campuses, with escalation routes from Course Directors and PATs into specialist language support.\n, • Ensure language and learning development is embedded in the curriculum in collaboration with the Academic Dean, the Head of Learning and Teaching and Course Directors, and that its impact on retention, attainment and progression is evaluated.\n\n F. Employability, Careers and Student Outcomes \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the employability and careers function through the Head of Employability and Student Outcomes, ensuring the Career-Ready Framework is delivered across every programme and campus.\n, • Lead the development of the Centre for Employability, Skills and Alumni, connecting teaching, research and graduate outcomes, and building employer, community and alumni engagement.\n, • Hold portfolio accountability for graduate progression, sustaining performance at or above the College’s institutional target, which is set above the OfS numerical baseline, and ensuring progression outcomes are monitored by campus and programme.\n, • Ensure employability, placements and career development are embedded at course level in collaboration with Course Directors, and provide senior oversight of the Student Experience, Engagement and Employability Committee.\n\n G. Research and Knowledge Exchange \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the Head of Research and Knowledge Exchange, fostering a research and scholarship culture among staff and ensuring research-informed teaching enriches the student experience.\n, • Provide senior oversight of the Research, Ethics and Knowledge Exchange Sub-Committee, ensuring rigorous research-ethics approval processes and monitoring research performance against internal and external indicators.\n, • Lead the College’s preparations for the Research Excellence Framework 2029 and its community-centred scholarship agenda, aligned with the research and knowledge-exchange sub-strategy and budget.\n\n H. Academic Integrity \n\n • Provide senior oversight of the Academic Integrity Office through the Head of Academic Integrity, ensuring academic-misconduct prevention, education, investigation and case management operate consistently, fairly and in line with each awarding body’s regulations.\n, • Ensure integrity data is analysed and reported termly, that trends inform preventative education delivered through PATs and module teams, and that assessment-design implications are raised with the Academic Dean.\n, • Ensure students receive clear education on academic integrity, referencing and the responsible use of technology from induction onwards.\n\n I. Quality, Compliance and Regulatory Assurance \n\n • Work in structured partnership with the Head of Quality and Compliance to ensure the student-experience portfolio meets, and can evidence that it meets, the OfS conditions of registration — including the quality conditions relating to resources,

Most architects are asked to design. Most business development people are asked to sell. This role combines the two. \n \n Vector Homes is looking for an ARB registered architect who can assess a difficult site, shape a credible scheme, lead the client conversation and keep delivery moving. \n \n Approximately half of the role is hands on architectural work. The other half is split between project development, client relationships and work winning. \n \n This is not a pure studio position and it is not a high volume sales role. It is for an architect who wants broader responsibility, direct access to the founders and a genuine route into business leadership. \n \n ABOUT VECTOR HOMES \n Vector Homes is the small site specialist for UK housing associations. We turn garage courts, infill plots, backland parcels and overlooked land into deliverable homes. \n Small sites fail for predictable reasons. Design becomes too bespoke. Planning absorbs too much time. Consultant and contractor coordination becomes disproportionate to scheme size. We solve this through standardised design, rapid feasibility, streamlined planning and trusted delivery partners. \n \n THE ROLE IN ONE SENTENCE \n Turn constrained sites and client relationships into viable, consentable and deliverable housing projects. \n \n HOW THE ROLE DIVIDES \n 50% Architecture and design \n 25% Project development \n 25% Client development and work winning \n \n WHAT YOU WILL OWN \n The balance will move with the pipeline, but the role remains deliberately broad. You will be expected to move between a drawing review, a consultant meeting, a client pitch and a commercial decision without losing rigour. \n \n Architecture and design \n\n • Carry out rapid site feasibility, constraints and opportunity assessments.\n, • Develop site layouts and concept designs using Vector Homes' standardised house types, adapting them intelligently to planning, context, access and viability.\n, • Produce and coordinate planning submissions, design reports, technical information and visual material across the relevant RIBA stages.\n, • Maintain design quality, regulatory compliance, buildability, cost awareness and consistency across the product platform.\n, • Coordinate and review the work of external architects, technologists, engineers and specialist consultants where required.\n, • Improve the design library, templates, standards and repeatable workflows that allow small schemes to move faster.\n\n \n Project development and management \n\n • Lead projects from the first site conversation through concept, viability, planning and delivery preparation, with involvement during construction and handover where required.\n, • Translate client objectives into clear briefs, scopes, programmes, responsibilities and decision points.\n, • Appoint and coordinate planning consultants, engineers, surveyors, ecologists, cost consultants, manufacturers and contractors.\n, • Chair meetings, maintain action and risk registers, drive decisions and provide concise, board ready reporting.\n, • Manage fees, appointments, change control, programme and project economics with the founding team.\n, • Identify delivery risks early and resolve them before they become expensive.\n\n \n Client development and work winning \n\n • Build trusted relationships with housing associations, local authorities, landowners, consultants and delivery partners, with an initial focus on the North West.\n, • Identify and qualify sites and opportunities, then convert early conversations into paid feasibility, planning and delivery commissions.\n, • Lead technical client meetings, site reviews, workshops and presentations.\n, • Prepare proposals, tender responses, framework submissions and pitch materials.\n, • Maintain a disciplined pipeline and CRM, with clear next actions and realistic probabilities.\n, • Represent Vector Homes at sector events, roundtables and targeted networking activity.\n\n \n WHAT YOU BRING \n This is an associate level scope without the distance from delivery that often comes with a traditional associate role. Capability matters more than title history. \n \n Essential \n\n • Current ARB registration and the legal right to use the title architect in the UK.\n, • Strong post Part 3 experience, likely around four to eight years, with evidence of capability more important than exact tenure.\n, • UK residential project experience, including concept design, planning and job running.\n, • A track record of coordinating multidisciplinary teams and driving projects through ambiguity.\n, • Strong site planning, planning policy, design, technical and visual communication skills.\n, • High proficiency in a leading BIM or CAD platform, ideally Revit, plus the ability to produce clear client material.\n, • Confidence with senior clients and the judgement to challenge constructively.\n, • Evidence of supporting work winning, proposals, tenders or client account development.\n, • Commercial awareness across scope, fees, programme, risk and viability.\n, • A hands on approach. You will shape the system and also do the work.\n, • Ability to travel regularly to client and project sites.\n\n \n Advantageous \n\n • Existing relationships within housing associations, local authorities, affordable housing, residential development or the North West consultant market.\n, • Experience of constrained sites, infill, garage courts, backland or estate regeneration.\n, • Knowledge of modern methods of construction, off site manufacture, panelised systems or standardised housing products.\n, • Experience of public sector procurement, frameworks and tendering.\n, • Familiarity with development appraisals, cost plans, contract administration or construction stage delivery.\n\n \n WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE \n \n First 90 days \n Understand the Vector system, own site screens and concepts, contribute actively in client meetings and take control of live project actions. \n \n By month 6 \n Lead projects and consultant teams independently, own named accounts and opportunities, and improve templates and delivery controls. \n \n By month 12 \n Deliver consistently strong schemes and planning submissions, convert relationships into paid work and repeat commissions, and act as a trusted technical and commercial lead. \n \n WHAT VECTOR HOMES OFFERS \n\n • Broad responsibility across architecture, project development and growth.\n, • A direct working relationship with the founders and faster decisions than a conventional practice.\n, • The freedom to shape design standards, project controls, tools and ways of working.\n, • Meaningful work that unlocks housing from sites others overlook.\n, • A salary of £40,000 to £45,000, depending on experience.\n, • Hybrid working from a Manchester base, with regular client and site travel.\n, • Support for ARB fees and relevant continuing professional development.\n, • Scope to grow into a broader leadership role as the business and project pipeline scale.\n

Senior Cost Manager - Hotels & Hospitality \n UK and European projects \n Manchester preferred, with other UK locations considered | Hybrid working \n Permanent | Full-time \n \n \n Tempest Jones is supporting a leading international property and construction consultancy with the appointment of a Senior Cost Manager into its growing hotels and hospitality team. \n \n This is an opportunity for someone with credible hotel project experience who wants to turn that experience into a genuine specialism. \n \n You will work on distinctive hotel developments across the UK and Europe, ranging from projects for major international brands, including Hilton, through to exceptional luxury and super prime schemes. \n \n One recent commission involved approximately £30 million of fit out expenditure alone and formed part of one of only 5 hotels of its kind globally. \n \n The attraction is not simply the quality of the projects. You will work with clients from the earliest stages, helping shape their ideas, test the commercial implications of design decisions and develop hotels that are operationally effective, financially viable and memorable for the people who use them. \n \n \n The Opportunity \n \n You do not need to have spent your entire career working exclusively in hotels. What matters is that you have meaningful experience within the sector, understand the particular challenges involved and want to make hotels and hospitality a much bigger part of your career. \n \n You will join an established team with a strong client base and a growing pipeline of projects across the UK and Europe. The work will cover the full project lifecycle, from early feasibility and cost planning through procurement, construction and final account. \n \n A key part of the role will be helping hotel owners, operators and investors understand how design, specification and operational decisions affect cost, programme and commercial viability. \n \n This is therefore more than a traditional cost reporting position. You will have the opportunity to influence projects while the brief and design are still being shaped. \n \n \n Career Development \n \n The opportunity is to progress from someone with good hotel experience into a recognised adviser within the sector. \n \n Initially, you will focus on delivering projects, developing your knowledge and building trusted relationships with existing clients. As your credibility grows, you will take greater ownership of key accounts, help generate repeat work and progress towards Associate level. \n \n Rather than remaining a generalist across multiple sectors, this role gives you the platform, project pipeline and client exposure to build a clear professional identity around hotels and hospitality. \n \n Over time, this could develop into a wider client and sector leadership position across the UK and Europe. \n \n \n About You \n \n You may already be operating at Senior Cost Manager level or be a strong Cost Manager ready to take the next step. \n \n You will have a background in cost management or quantity surveying, gained within a consultancy, contractor or client side environment. \n \n You should have worked on hotel or hospitality projects and have enough sector exposure to understand the demands of refurbishment, fit out, redevelopment, cut and carve or new build schemes. \n \n You will also need experience across some or all of the project lifecycle, including cost planning, preconstruction, procurement and post contract delivery. \n \n The role is highly client facing, so you should be comfortable advising senior stakeholders, explaining commercial issues clearly and challenging decisions where appropriate. \n \n You do not need to arrive as the finished hotels expert. However, you should have a genuine interest in the sector and the ambition to develop deeper expertise over time. \n \n Chartered status would be beneficial, although those working towards chartership will also be considered. \n \n \n Location and Travel \n \n The hotels team and its leadership are based in Manchester, so Manchester and the wider North West are the preferred locations. \n \n However, the business recognises that strong hotel experience exists across the market and is open to considering candidates based elsewhere in the UK, including Yorkshire and London. \n \n The role will include travel to clients and projects across Europe. This will be on a visit basis for meetings, project reviews and key delivery stages, rather than involving long term site attendance or extended periods working away. \n \n You will gain international project exposure without having to build your life around constant travel. \n \n \n What Is on Offer \n \n This is a chance to work on genuinely interesting hotel projects for major clients across the UK and Europe while building a clear and valuable sector specialism. \n \n You will gain exposure to luxury and super prime developments, work closely with established hotel brands and develop towards Associate level and future client leadership. \n \n The role also offers flexible hybrid working, a competitive salary and benefits package, continued professional development and the opportunity to build a long term career within a growing international hotels business. \n \n To apply, please submit your CV, or for a confidential discussion, contact Dean Forster at Tempest Jones on dean@tempestjones.com.

ACADEMIC DEAN Job Responsibilities The College UK Management College (UKMC) is a private, widening-participation higher education provider established in 2016, delivering degree programmes with an integrated Foundation Year in partnership with universities that act as the awarding bodies. The College delivers, but does not develop or award, curriculum: all programmes are validated or franchised by its partneruniversities — the University of Wolverhampton (principal partner), Canterbury Christ Church University, Arts University Bournemouth and Health Sciences University — and are delivered across the College’s campuses in Manchester (College House, Salford and Abarna Campus), Derby, Newcastle (North Shields) and Sunderland. Course delivery is organised course-wide rather than campus-by-campus: each programme is led by a Course Director who owns the Course Performance Plan across all campuses, while at each campus a Head of Academics (Campus Academic Lead) works with Course Officers and Module Leaders to deliver and assure provision locally. The College measures its success through retention, continuation, completion and progression. Role Purpose The Academic Dean is the College’s senior academic leader for the delivery of all courses, with all partner universities, across all campuses. The post holder holds executive responsibility for ensuring that every programme the College delivers is up to date, coherent and effectively delivered in accordance with the regulations of the relevant awarding body; that delivery at every campus is properly resourced, staffed and quality-assured; and that assessment, examination and academic-standards processes operate credibly and consistently. The Academic Dean owns academicworkforce planning and academic staff recruitment, ensuring the College has the qualified, developed and well-supported teaching workforce its students and partners require. The Academic Dean reports to the Associate Provost / Provost and works in close partnership with the Dean of Student Experience, whose teams provide the academic services — Personal Academic Tutoring, wellbeing, engagement, academic language and learning, employability, academic integrity, and research and knowledge exchange — that surround and support course delivery. Together, thetwo Deans are jointly accountable for the College’s student outcomes: continuation, completion and progression at or above the College’s institutional targets, which are themselves set above OfS numerical baselines. Reporting and Organisational Position Reports to: Associate Provost / Provost. Line manages: Associate Deans and Assistant Deans; through them, the Course Directors; and the Academic Heads of Campus (Campus Academic Leads) at each campus. The wider academicdelivery workforce — Module Leaders, Course Officers, Lecturers and Assistant Lecturers — reports through this structure. The Head of Learning and Teaching reports to the Academic Dean for the teaching-quality, observation and academic CPD agenda. Works with: The Dean of Student Experience; the Academic Registrar and the Academic Services and Registry structure; the Head of Quality and Compliance; the Head of Human Resources (academic workforce planning and recruitment); the Chief Operating Officer (timetabling, estates and campus resources); partner universities (awarding bodies), their link tutors and boards; and the College’s senior committees. Committees: Chairs the Faculty Committee; member of Academic Board and the Executive Board as constituted; senior oversight of the Course Coordination Committee (chaired by an Associate / Assistant Dean) and, through Course Directors, of the Course Committees for every programme. Key Responsibilities A. Strategic Academic Leadership Provide institution-wide academic leadership for the delivery of the College’s full course portfolio, ensuring delivery plans give effect to the Strategic Plan 2025–2030 and the learning and teaching sub-strategy. Lead, develop and performance-manage the Associate and Assistant Deans, agreeing objectives, holding regular documented one-to-ones, conducting appraisals and building a capable, collegial academic leadership team. Ensure the course-wide delivery model — Course Directors owning each programme across campuses, with Academic Heads of Campus assuring local delivery — operates effectively, with clear accountabilities and no gaps between course-level and campus-level oversight. Advise the Associate Provost / Provost, the Executive Board and the Board of Directors on academic delivery capacity, risks and opportunities, ensuring that growth in student numbers is always measured, deliberate and matched to delivery capacity. Deputise for the Provost on academic delivery matters as required and represent the College’s academic provision externally.B. Course Delivery with Partner Universities Hold overall responsibility for the delivery of every programme franchised or validated by the University of Wolverhampton, Canterbury Christ Church University, Arts University Bournemouth and Health Sciences University, ensuring each is delivered strictly in accordance with the relevant awarding body’s academic regulations, programme specifications and partnership agreement. Ensure each course remains up to date and coherent in delivery: that module content, learning materials and reading lists are current; that modules build appropriately across levels from the integrated Foundation Year onwards; and that any changes proposed by an awarding body are implemented promptly and communicated to students. Lead the College’s academic contribution to partner-university validation, approval, periodic review and revalidation events, including the preparation of delivery plans, staffing evidence and staff CVs for partner approval. Oversee annual programme monitoring and course self-evaluation for every programme, ensuring Course Performance Plans are owned, evidenced and acted upon, and that external examiner reports and partner monitoring outcomes result in tracked improvement actions. Manage teach-out obligations with care — including the Canterbury Christ Church University teach-out — so that every continuing student receives a full, high-quality delivery experience to completion. Act as the College’s senior academic point of contact with each partner university on delivery matters, maintaining constructive, transparent relationships with partner academic leads and link tutors, and supporting due diligence for prospective partnerships under the Partner Selection Framework.C. Multi-Campus Delivery and Parity Ensure every campus — Manchester (College House and Abarna House), Salford, Derby, Newcastle (North Shields) and Sunderland — delivers its allocated provision to the same academic standard, with equivalent access to qualified staff, learning resources, library provision and the virtual learning environment. Oversee the deployment of Academic Heads of Campus, ensuring each campus has effective local academic leadership, and that cross-campus consistency is monitored through the Course Coordination Committee and campus-level reporting. Work with the Chief Operating Officer and the Academic Registrar to ensure timetabling, room utilisation and campus academic resources support effective delivery, and that campus capacity is respected in enrolment planning. Monitor outcomes by campus and by programme — retention, continuation, completion and progression — identifying and addressing any campus-level variation in performance or student experience. Ensure new campus provision, including provision delivered at Salford, Derby and Sunderland for Health Sciences University programmes, is established with full delivery capability from the first day of teaching.D. Assessment, Examinations and AcademicStandards Hold senior oversight of the operation of assessment across the College: assessment scheduling, secure examination arrangements, marking, internal moderation and the timely submission of results to each awarding body in line with its regulations and deadlines. Ensure College staff are prepared for and effectively represented at partner-university assessment boards and boards of examiners, and that board outcomes are implemented accurately and promptly. Ensure external examining arrangements operate effectively for every programme and that external examiner feedback is answered and actioned. Safeguard the credibility of assessment in collaboration with the Dean of Student Experience, whose portfolio includes the Academic Integrity Office, ensuring assessment design, invigilation and moderation minimise opportunities for misconduct. Ensure reasonable adjustments and agreed support plans are implemented consistently in assessment delivery, in collaboration with the Dean of Student Experience’s teams and in compliance with the Equality Act 2010.E. Academic Workforce Planning and Recruitment Own the College’s academic workforce plan: model staffing requirements against enrolment forecasts, staff–student ratios, module delivery plans and campus growth, and keep the plan aligned with the budget and the five-year financial forecasts. Lead academic recruitment with the Head of Human Resources: define establishment needs, approve job descriptions and person specifications, chair or oversee senior academic appointments, and ensure every appointed member of teaching staff is appropriately qualified and approved by the relevant awarding body where required. Oversee academic induction, probation, mentoring and the assistant-lecturer development pathway, ensuring new staff are supported to full effectiveness. Oversee the academic workload model, ensuring workloads are fair, transparent and consistent with high-quality delivery, and that Personal Academic Tutoring, scholarship and development time are properly recognised. Champion academic staff development and progression through the College’s academic progression pathways and salary structure, supporting staff towards the PGCert and Advance HE Fellowship in line with institutional targets, working with the Head of Learning andTeaching. Plan resilience into the workforce — cover arrangements, the appropriate use of part-time and casual academic staff, and succession planning for academic leadership roles.F. Learning, Teaching and Delivery Quality Hold senior oversight of the Head of Learning and Teaching and the teaching-quality agenda: the teaching observation scheme, peer review, the academic CPD programme and calendar, the annual Learning and Teaching Conference, and partner-university teaching observations. Ensure teaching across all campuses is inclusive, research-informed and compliant with the Teaching, Learning and Assessment frameworks, including the Inclusive Curriculum Framework and the English Proficiency Framework. Ensure the virtual learning environment is populated, current and consistently used across all modules and campuses, and that digital delivery meets the standards expected of higher education in England. Use student feedback — module evaluations, mid-module student-representative discussions, partner surveys and institutional surveys — to drive continuous improvement in delivery, withvisible “you said, we did” responses.G. Student Outcomes and Data Hold delivery-side accountability for the College’s outcome measures — retention, continuation, completion and progression — monitored by campus and by programme, and for sustaining performance at or above the College’s institutional targets, which are setabove OfS numerical baselines. Ensure Course Directors analyse attainment, engagement and outcomes data by demographic group, identify at-risk modules and cohorts, and act early, in collaboration with the Personal Academic Tutor team and the Dean of Student Experience’s services. Ensure academic delivery data — attendance, engagement, assessment and outcomes — is recorded accurately in the College’s student information systems and supports reliable internal reporting and external regulatory returns. Contribute delivery evidence to the annual Self-Assessment Report and the Quality Enhancement Plan, and account for delivery performance at Academic Board and to the Board of Directors through the Board Assurance Dashboard.H. Governance, Compliance and Regulation Chair the Faculty Committee and ensure its sub-structure — the Course Coordination Committee and the Course Committees for every programme — operates effectively, with accurate minutes, tracked actions and reliable reporting to Academic Board. Ensure academic delivery complies with the OfS conditions of registration — in particular the quality conditions relating to course content and delivery, resources and support, and assessment and awards — the UK Quality Code, the Equality Act 2010, Prevent and data-protection obligations. Ensure the College can evidence its delivery arrangements to regulators, awarding bodies and external reviewers at any time, maintaining complete and current programme documentation, staffing structures and delivery records. Escalate material academic risks promptly through the risk register and to the Associate Provost / Provost, and ensure lessons from complaints, appeals and academic incidents inform improvement. Undertake any additional duties assigned by the Associate Provost / Provost, commensurate with the seniority of the role. Working with the Dean of Student Experience The Academic Dean and the Dean of Student Experience hold complementary portfolios within a single academic leadership model, under the senior oversight of the Associate Provost / Provost. The Academic Dean leads what is taught, by whom, and how well it is delivered; the Dean of Student Experience leads the services that enable every student to engage, persist and succeed.The two Deans are expected to operate as close partners: to maintain shared oversight of student outcomes; to align delivery plans with support capacity before each intake; to ensure Personal Academic Tutors, wellbeing, engagement, language, employability and integrity services are embedded in course delivery at every campus; and to present joint assurance on the academic student experience to Academic Board. Neither portfolio succeeds without the other, and both Deansare jointly accountable for the coherence of the whole. Values and Conduct The Academic Dean is expected to model the College’s values at all times: to act with integrity, fairness and transparency; to promote equality, diversity and inclusion across the academic community; to safeguard the interests, welfare and outcomes of students; to respect the authority of each awarding body over its curriculum and awards; and to uphold the College’s widening-participation mission, in which student success is measured by the distance travelled and the outcomes achieved — retention, continuation, completion and progression — rather than by selectivit

We're not one of the big boys so you won't be part of a 10 person intake, we can dedicate the time and resources you will need as an individual to make yourself a success in what is a hugely competitive industry. We can also offer a wide choice of market specialisms under the direct mentoring of our experienced leadership team. \n You will be responsible for expanding our service offering along the lines of your chosen market, bringing on board new clients and making sure they're serviced to the levels we have become renowned for. You'll get plenty of help along the way and we pride ourselves on avoiding the churn & burn approach to expansion - if you're dedicated & committed, we'll be with you all the way. \n \n So what are we looking for? \n \n If someone could write the recipe for perfect results every time when it comes to hiring trainee recruiters, they would very rich indeed. Successful recruiters come from many a background but most have experience in some sort of customer service or sales role whether people interaction plays a big part. \n \n What you will need though is a commitment and dedication to delivering for your clients whilst being driven to achieve, and surpass, targets set. With this should be a genuine thirst for both personal and financial success in what is one of the most competitive industries you can imagine. We only recruit for highly sought after technical staff and competition is tough, we know it’s not easy but nothing that's worth the reward ever is! \n \n As technology is our sector of choice, you will also need to develop a deep understanding of your chosen speciality - Google can always help but a few weekends with your head buried in the right kind of book won’t go amiss. \n \n Traits you will need to bring: \n \n\n • Communication - strong written and verbal communication skills are a must as you establish and build relationships across the industry\n, • Self-Promotion - more than ever in the connected world, your ability to promote your personal brand is an essential part of what we do. Via Linkedin, Instagram, YouTube, personal and company blogs etc, you will be reaching out to prospects and must have a firm grasp of how to market yourself with confidence\n, • Organisation – with numerous clients and candidates seeking your expertise, you will need to master the art of multiple plate spinning\n, • Initiative – an ability to think on your feet and resolve any issues is vital.\n, • Work ethic – it goes without saying in any role but you get out what you put in. This is especially true in recruitment.\n, • Resilience – things go wrong in recruitment, often! You’re representing people and those people have a tendency to change their minds - often to your detriment. Shout, scream, sulk a little……..then pick yourself up and go again.\n\n \n And what you can expect: \n \n\n • Comprehensive training in all aspects of the role – both “classroom” and “on the job”\n, • Uncapped, market leading commission scheme with no thresholds and quarterly incentives to progress\n, • Team holiday incentives – last year saw the team visit Las Vegas\n, • 27 days holiday, birthday off & WFH options after probation\n, • Access to marketing lead tech & Linkedin recruiter account\n, • Relaxed, friendly culture – we’re competitive but we’re not Wolf of Wall Street\n\n \n Curious? \n \n You probably have lots of questions but If the above genuinely sounds like the kind of challenge that excites we would love to hear from you. \n \n Drop us a line with your latest CV and we can arrange an initial, informal chat.

Most architects are asked to design. Most business development people are asked to sell. This role combines the two. Vector Homes is looking for an ARB registered architect who can assess a difficult site, shape a credible scheme, lead the client conversation and keep delivery moving. Approximately half of the role is hands on architectural work. The other half is split between project development, client relationships and work winning. This is not a pure studio position and it is not a high volume sales role. It is for an architect who wants broader responsibility, direct access to the founders and a genuine route into business leadership. ABOUT VECTOR HOMESVector Homes is the small site specialist for UK housing associations. We turn garage courts, infill plots, backland parcels and overlooked land into deliverable homes.Small sites fail for predictable reasons. Design becomes too bespoke. Planning absorbs too much time. Consultant and contractor coordination becomes disproportionate to scheme size. We solve this through standardised design, rapid feasibility, streamlined planning and trusted delivery partners. THE ROLE IN ONE SENTENCETurn constrained sites and client relationships into viable, consentable and deliverable housing projects. HOW THE ROLE DIVIDES50% Architecture and design 25% Project development 25% Client development and work winning WHAT YOU WILL OWNThe balance will move with the pipeline, but the role remains deliberately broad. You will be expected to move between a drawing review, a consultant meeting, a client pitch and a commercial decision without losing rigour. Architecture and designCarry out rapid site feasibility, constraints and opportunity assessments.Develop site layouts and concept designs using Vector Homes standardised house types, adapting them intelligently to planning, context, access and viability.Produce and coordinate planning submissions, design reports, technical information and visual material across the relevant RIBA stages.Maintain design quality, regulatory compliance, buildability, cost awareness and consistency across the product platform.Coordinate and review the work of external architects, technologists, engineers and specialist consultants where required.Improve the design library, templates, standards and repeatable workflows that allow small schemes to move faster. Project development and managementLead projects from the first site conversation through concept, viability, planning and delivery preparation, with involvement during construction and handover where required.Translate client objectives into clear briefs, scopes, programmes, responsibilities and decision points.Appoint and coordinate planning consultants, engineers, surveyors, ecologists, cost consultants, manufacturers and contractors.Chair meetings, maintain action and risk registers, drive decisions and provide concise, board ready reporting.Manage fees, appointments, change control, programme and project economics with the founding team.Identify delivery risks early and resolve them before they become expensive. Client development and work winningBuild trusted relationships with housing associations, local authorities, landowners, consultants and delivery partners, with an initial focus on the North West.Identify and qualify sites and opportunities, then convert early conversations into paid feasibility, planning and delivery commissions.Lead technical client meetings, site reviews, workshops and presentations.Prepare proposals, tender responses, framework submissions and pitch materials.Maintain a disciplined pipeline and CRM, with clear next actions and realistic probabilities.Represent Vector Homes at sector events, roundtables and targeted networking activity. WHAT YOU BRINGThis is an associate level scope without the distance from delivery that often comes with a traditional associate role. Capability matters more than title history. EssentialCurrent ARB registration and the legal right to use the title architect in the UK.Strong post Part 3 experience, likely around four to eight years, with evidence of capability more important than exact tenure.UK residential project experience, including concept design, planning and job running.A track record of coordinating multidisciplinary teams and driving projects through ambiguity.Strong site planning, planning policy, design, technical and visual communication skills.High proficiency in a leading BIM or CAD platform, ideally Revit, plus the ability to produce clear client material.Confidence with senior clients and the judgement to challenge constructively.Evidence of supporting work winning, proposals, tenders or client account development.Commercial awareness across scope, fees, programme, risk and viability.A hands on approach.

By month 12Deliver consistently strong schemes and planning submissions, convert relationships into paid work and repeat commissions, and act as a trusted technical and commercial lead. WHAT VECTOR HOMES OFFERSBroad responsibility across architecture, project development and growth.A direct working relationship with the founders and faster decisions than a conventional practice.The freedom to shape design standards, project controls, tools and ways of working.Meaningful work that unlocks housing from sites others overlook.A salary of £40,000 to £45,000, depending on experience.Hybrid working from a Manchester base, with regular client and site travel.Support for ARB fees and relevant continuing professional development.Scope to grow into a broader leadership role as the business and project pipeline scale.
