Widening Access and Participation
At The University of Law we take our responsibility to widen access and participation within legal and business education seriously, and we are currently entering an exciting new period of widening participation work. The recently appointed Director for Fair Access and Participation at the Office for Students has outlined a new approach to access and participation work within universities, and ‘evaluation, evaluation, evaluation’ is key to this. We are looking to recruit a Widening Participation Evaluation Officer to take responsibility for the evaluation of our widening participation work, to ensure that it is evidence-based and that we know if what we are doing is working. You will work with colleagues involved in widening participation work across the university to integrate evaluation within their projects from the outset and to empower them to undertake their own evaluation work using your expertise and skills. You will help to develop the evidence base to demonstrate process and impact against widening participation targets within the University and with the Office for Students. Reporting to the Head of Access and Participation, you will have experience in leading on the planning and implementation of evaluations, and using monitoring and evaluation tools to gather evidence on outcomes and impacts. You will have analytical, creative and pragmatic problem solving skills and the ability to present and summarise key information to senior stakeholders. This role is an excellent opportunity to work in a sector-leading Higher Education organisation with a real commitment to widening participation and it is ideal for candidates who have evaluation experience and are interested in applying them in an EDI context.
