Role Summary

This is a strategic role at the heart of LCCA’s student success and regulatory agenda. You will play a critical part in shaping how the institution supports final year students, strengthens graduate progression and protects performance against Office for Students Condition B3.

Working collaboratively across Registry, Academic Services, Careers and Employability, data teams at UCA, and external partners, you will influence practice, culture and decision making to deliver meaningful improvement in graduate outcomes.

As Graduate Outcomes Manager, you will lead LCCA’s institutional strategy and operational delivery for graduate outcomes data and performance. You will act as the institutional lead for the HESA Graduate Outcomes Survey, with responsibility for improving response rates, ensuring data quality and translating insight into targeted academic and employability interventions.

You will have a visible presence with Level 6 students, supporting their transition into employment or further study and embedding a culture of confidence, engagement and outcomes awareness. You will produce high quality insight for senior leadership, contribute to B3 planning and ensure that the student journey is aligned with successful graduate progression and institutional reputation.

Key Activities & Responsibilities

Graduate Outcomes and Regulatory Performance

  • Lead the planning, delivery and evaluation of the Graduate Outcomes Survey and associated data cycles.
  • Oversee validation of graduate submissions, ensuring compliance, accuracy and GDPR assurance.
  • Monitor response rates and outcomes trends, producing clear reporting to inform senior leadership and B3 decision making.
  • Use labour market intelligence, sector data and institutional insight to shape improvement strategies.
  • Work closely with UCA data and reporting teams to align dashboards, risk indicators, trend analysis and institutional insight.

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.
