The University of Exeter is one of the world’s best. It is a member of the Russell Group of research-intensive universities, having ranked in the top 150 universities in the world and the top 15 UK universities in prestigious global and national league tables.
The University has a proud history and has grown from its roots in the South-West of England to be a truly inclusive and diverse global university with a community of around 30,000 students from over 150 countries and 6,400 staff across four campuses in Devon and Cornwall, as well as alumni, academics and global university partners that bring the world to Exeter and take Exeter to the world.
Our international community is important to our identity and it is in this context that we are seeking to appoint a new Head of International Student Recruitment, to help us reach new markets and continue to diversify our student body.
The new Head of International Student Recruitment will be responsible for building strong, productive relationships with our global network of agents and partners for the University of Exeter. They will help build recruitment activity in new and existing markets, and will help enhance and disseminate Exeter’s reputation and brand internationally.
Leading a team within the University, the incoming Head will help refine systems and processes to ensure strong, data-driven decision making. They will work closely with internal stakeholders to understand our current offer and translate this for international audiences. The new Head of International Student Recruitment will be familiar with international recruitment trends and will horizon scan and help prepare the University for future developments.
We are seeking an individual with strong international recruitment and leadership experience. They will possess strong interpersonal skills to inspire and motivate the team, and will have a good depth of experience in data driven decision making and line management.
