Advice and Response Caseworker (Conduct and Discipline)

The University of Manchester’s Advice and Response Team is looking for a passionate and highly skilled caseworker to join our team in delivering high quality support, advice, and investigative work, and coordinating activities in relation to cases to ensure consistency of approach.

You will be joining a dedicated and experienced team of case workers who are committed to facilitating fair, supportive, and efficient student disciplinary procedures within the University. You will be working closely alongside the Advice and Response Manager for Student Conduct and Discipline, and colleagues within the DSE, to support arrangements for student disciplinary hearings that take place within the Division of Campus Life. You will also manage a caseload of complex and sensitive cases, leading on investigations or assessment meetings where necessary. You will also support senior colleagues in the delivery of the Division’s strategic priorities that will enhance the student experience.

We expect applicants to have significant experience in a similar role, which may have been gained in Higher Education or a related field. We additionally expect applicants to be sensitive to the complexity and nuance of cases the Division handles, and to seek to engage in continued professional development in this area.

As an equal opportunities employer we welcome applicants from all sections of the community regardless of age, sex, gender (or gender identity), ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation and transgender status. All appointments are made on merit.
