Hi,

I have been working as a Faculty co-ordinator in the North for the School of Health, Wellbeing and Social Care since 2010. Working with Nursing, Social Work and Health and Social Care colleagues I get to see so much amazing work that is carried out in this School. I work with staff across multiple teams in the University, students and employers and try my best to make sure everyone can study, teach, work and collaborate effectively with us in the Northern team.

I work from home 3 days a week and tend to be ‘office’ based most working days, but I do also travel out and about within the Yorkshire region and sometimes further afield. This is mostly for Student Recruitment events, Tutor development or employer meetings.

My work usually involves

• working alongside Staff tutors to deal with complex student or tutor queries
• manage tutor contracts and the allocation of tutors to tutorials
• quality assurance aspects on the professional programme
• setting up and managing events
• managing student recruitment for the professional programmes

From 2013 - 2018 I also took on the role of Data Interpreter for the Health, Wellbeing and Social Care Student Support Team. This involved working with data using the Student Support Tool. As well as managing the process of sending interventions to students throughout their modules, I used the tool to identify set groups of students based on particular needs at the time.

I am always happy to take queries and if I don’t know the answer, I am always happy to try and find it – problem solving is something I seem to have become known for.
