Job Role
This role will be based on the University of Leeds main campus, with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
Do you have the organisational skills and operational oversight needed to manage a high-volume, national application service? Can you co-ordinate people, processes, and compliance requirements to ensure seamless delivery during peak periods? Are you an experienced administrator and team co-ordinator who thrives on improving systems, solving problems, and delivering excellent stakeholder service?
About the Clearing House
The Clearing House is a registered educational charity based within the Faculty of Medicine and Health at the University of Leeds. It provides a centralised application service for postgraduate clinical psychology programmes across Great Britain and has been operating for over 40 years.
Working in partnership with approximately 30 university-based clinical psychology programmes, the Clearing House delivers a high-volume, cyclical service, processing around 6,500 applications and 13,000 references annually. Delivery of the service during peak periods requires careful planning and co-ordination. The service operates within defined procedures and regulatory frameworks, with a cyclical peak between November and January requiring effective co-ordination of staff and resources. This includes additional working hours being offered to permanent staff, alongside the recruitment and supervision of temporary staff.
