At Weston College, we know that finances can be one of the barriers to education, which is why we are looking to recruit a Student Funding Co-ordinator, who will help students access support through a range of bursaries and financial aids, ensuring they have individualised help to succeed.
This is a full-time role, working within our Student Support team.
Whilst the role will be based at Knightstone Campus, you will be expected to travel between all of our sites to ensure all learners can access the support offered.
As the Student Funding Co-ordinator, you will:
- Provide a responsive, effective and learner-facing service to FE learners of the College in relation to personal, financial and practical advice.
- Provide support to learners by managing the administration of student support funds, with the aim of minimising the impact of vulnerability and socio-economic disadvantage on outcomes.
- Assess applications for support, maintain accurate financial records, produce detailed reports, and provide clear, timely advice to students.
- Lead on communication campaigns that promote financial wellbeing resources available to students.
