The University of Greenwich is home to a truly global community of staff and students, we have ambitions to develop our already successful Faculties into a world leading centre for innovation in teaching, research, knowledge exchange and student enterprise.

The Admissions Office is currently working to a hybrid model of a minimum two days a week on campus, with the rest of the week remote working. The roles are primarily based at our Avery Hill campus, but the role holders will be expected to be willing to travel to other campuses as required.

The University has an ambitious strategic plan for growth and anticipates continued strong performance in future recruitment cycles. The Marketing & External Relations Directorate is seeking to appoint One Admissions Assistant. The post holder will join a growing, diverse central Admissions team, responsible for making decisions and processing many applications for admission to the University of Greenwich and dealing with related email enquiries from applicants.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
