Description
The role
We are seeking a pro-active, self-motivated and highly organised team player to provide administrative support to a friendly team within the School of Health Sciences. The successful applicant will be responsible for the smooth running of Schwartz Rounds for students and staff in the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences.
Schwartz Rounds aim to improve the wellbeing of university staff and students by providing a confidential reflective space to process the social, ethical and emotional challenges of the work they do. Each Round lasts one hour and commences with one or two storytellers sharing their experiences to trigger reflection and resonance in the audience. An open discussion, guided by a trained facilitator, then follows in which audience members are invited to share their reflections triggered by the panellists’ stories. They run both face to face and online. More information on Schwartz Rounds is here including links to animation films: https://workforceresearchsurrey.health/projects-resources/schwartz-rounds/.
The successful applicant will be based at the University of Surrey and will work closely with Schwartz Round leads Professors Jill Maben and Cath Taylor, and the Schwartz Rounds facilitation team. They will be responsible for key administrative elements of Schwartz Rounds at Surrey, with supervision and support. They will be part of a vibrant community at the University of Surrey through the Workforce Organisation and Wellbeing (WOW) expert group (https://www.surrey.ac.uk/school-health-sciences/research/workforce-organisation-and-wellbeing) and the wider School of Health Sciences.
About You
The successful applicant will require a flexible and proactive approach to their work with excellent verbal and written communication skills, engaging with the wide-ranging stakeholders, as well as the ability to work independently within a face to face and remote team culture. They will have a good working knowledge of MS Word, Excel spreadsheets, Zoom and TicketTailor. They will demonstrate confidentiality, excellent interpersonal and relationship building skills and the ability to work on their own initiative. Organisation, planning and attention to detail are key requirements for this position. Previous experience in an administrative role is essential and experience of working within a University setting is advantageous.
How To Apply
This is a fixed term part-time post for up to 28 months, starting 1st March 2025.
In return we can offer a generous annual leave entitlement, access to a variety of staff development opportunities, childcare assistance and discounted membership to Surrey Sports Park.
As a Silver Athena SWAN award holder, Stonewall Diversity Champion and Disability Confident employer, we are committed to supporting equality, diversity and inclusion.
Studies have shown that women and other minoritised groups are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet every single criteria. In the School of Health Sciences, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you are excited about this role but your experience does not align perfectly with what is stated, we encourage you to contact us to discuss. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
