Jesus College Cambridge are seeking to appoint an assistant to cover admissions and events in their busy Tutorial office. The Tutorial Assistant (Admissions & Events) will be expected to provide a professional, efficient and supportive service in respect of undergraduate admissions and a high standard of administrative support to the Tutorial Department with regards to events.

Duties will include (but are not limited to), acting as point of contact and appropriately manage all enquiries (both by email and over the telephone) concerning undergraduate admissions, prospectuses and offers. Liaise with schools, parents, and prospective applicants at all stages of the admissions process. During peak periods, it is anticipated that the Tutorial and Admissions Assistant will be dedicated to these duties on a full-time basis.

This is a full-time position working 36.5 hours per week Monday to Friday. There will occasionally be the requirement to work on a weekend e.g. when a congregation is taking place, but this will be sufficiently planned in advance with time off in lieu. 

A full job description, person specification and application form are available to download on the College website. Interviews are expected to be held week commencing Monday 2nd October 2023.
