We are looking for a Senior Relationship Manager to join the Projects team to lead on provider support for the Academic Progression Programme. 

Preferably for immediately available candidates or those with a notice period not exceeding one month; this is a fixed term contract until August 2025.

This role is available on a flexible basis and so we will consider candidates who are available for both full-time and part-time work (at least 4 days per week). If full-time the postholder will contribute to wider project team work as needed.

This role involves managing a caseload of providers who began delivery of the Academic Progression Programme pilot in September 2023. The Senior Relationship Manager needs to have strong relationships with each provider, offering advice, support, and challenge to guide them in successful implementation.

The role also coordinates and leads on data collection and analysis, reporting, and events that are responsive and supportive to providers’ delivery needs. 

Please refer to the job description and person specification for more details about this role. To discuss this role, please contact Dominic Holroyd.
