Programme Administrator

About The Role

The University of Bath’s School of Management is seeking a highly organised and proactive Programme Administrator to join the MSc Office team.

This is a fast-paced and varied role, assisting with the delivery and management of a portfolio of PGT programmes. You will play a key role in ensuring a high-quality student experience by coordinating programme administration, processing applications, and maintaining accurate records.

Working both independently and as part of a collaborative team, you will manage a high-volume workload in a dynamic, multicultural environment. You will liaise regularly with students, academic staff, agents, and central University departments, requiring strong communication skills and a professional, customer-focused approach.

You will contribute to the continuous improvement of administrative processes, ensuring they are efficient, effective, and aligned with University regulations and established guidelines.

About You

You will be a motivated and diligent administrator with the ability to manage competing priorities in a busy environment.

You Will Demonstrate

  • Excellent organisational and time management skills
  • The ability to work autonomously and take initiative
  • Strong multitasking and prioritisation skills
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
  • Strong IT skills, including experience with databases and record systems
  • A high level of accuracy and attention to detail
  • Experience of working in a customer-facing or higher education environment is desirable.

Further information

This is a busy and varied position requiring flexibility, including occasional evening and weekend work to assist with events.

The postholder must be able to work to tight deadlines, adapt quickly to new systems and processes, and build effective working relationships across the University.

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.
