• Enhancing operations – Improve ways of working to strengthen the effectiveness of the division as a connected and genuinely strategic function.
• Engaging with stakeholders across the university: Build relationships, facilitate collaboration, and contribute to embedding sustainable improvements.

What You’ll Bring
