We are seeking an experienced senior administrator to join Information Services (IS) at the University of Kent as our Head of Business Support.

We are looking for an inclusive, creative and pro-active leader who is highly organised, an excellent communicator and able to work to challenging deadlines.

You’ll have a track record of successfully leading diverse professional support teams, with strong budget management skills and recent experience of delivering substantial organisational change projects.

- Initiate reports, develop proposals for change and implement change to reflect strategic decisions
- Represent the Department at university-wide groups and occasionally external meetings, advising, coordinating and influencing change
-
