The opportunity
This is a key post that will contribute to the ambitions of the University’s new Strategic Plan 2017/18 – 2022/23.
You will be part of a small team delivering the Welsh Government (WG) funded GO Wales Plus: Supporting Graduate Futures Project at Cardiff Metropolitan University. You will work with the Project Co-ordinator, Employability Officer (Graduates) and other internal departments to promote and deliver the programme to recent graduates who require higher levels of employability support, such as, but not limited to, those with disabilities, from minority ethnic backgrounds, from low participation neighbourhoods and who are unemployed or in a low-skilled role.
The main purpose of this role will be to support the administration and delivery of a new employability skills development framework for graduates as part of the GO Wales Plus programme. This programme aims to ensure graduates develop key employability skills to enable them to gain career relevant roles. You will also provide administrative support to the Project Co-ordinator and Employability Officer (Graduates) in areas such as graduate onboarding, employer registration, internship process management, systems management and reporting.
