Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) is a distinctive, unique institution, rooted in the Liverpool City Region and with a global presence. Our students are at the heart of everything we do, and we are committed to creating opportunities that transform lives and futures.
We are seeking a highly organised, customer-focused Faculty Administrator to join our Work-based and Placement Learning Team within the Faculty of Health, Innovation, Technology and Science. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced administrator who enjoys working in a busy, people-focused environment and takes pride in delivering an outstanding service to students, colleagues and external partners.
As a key member of the Work-based and Placement Learning Team, you will play an important role in supporting students undertaking placements and work-based learning opportunities across a diverse range of programmes. You will be the first point of contact for placement-related enquiries, providing professional and responsive support to students, academic staff, healthcare providers, employers and external agencies. Working collaboratively across the Faculty and wider University, you will help ensure that all placement processes are managed efficiently, accurately and in line with regulatory and professional requirements.
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.
