• Excellent communication, influencing and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to advise colleagues at all levels.
• Experience of chairing meetings, coordinating action plans and maintaining accurate, confidential and defensible records.
• A strong commitment to student wellbeing, inclusion, professional boundaries and trauma-informed practice.
