Student Experience And Services Manager
Liverpool John Moores University is seeking an ambitious, innovative and student-centred leader to join the Faculty of Health, Innovation, Technology and Science (HITS) as our Student Experience and Services Manager. We are looking for someone who is passionate about creating outstanding student experiences, improving student outcomes and leading high-performing professional services teams that make a tangible difference to students' lives.
Working at the heart of one of the University’s diverse faculties, you will have the opportunity to shape the future of student support, engagement and administration across an exciting portfolio of disciplines spanning health, science, technology and innovation.
You will be a key member of the Faculty Professional Services leadership team, helping to deliver the University's ambitions around student success, belonging, retention, continuation, employability and graduate outcomes.
The student journey is becoming increasingly complex. Students rightly expect services that are accessible, responsive, personalised and effective and we want every student to feel supported, connected and empowered to achieve their potential.
As Student Experience and Services Manager, you will lead the teams, systems and services that underpin that ambition. You will bring together programme administration, student-facing services and student success activity to create a seamless and outstanding experience from enrolment through to graduation. You will be expected to challenge established thinking, drive innovation and use evidence to improve both student outcomes and operational performance.
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.
