Assessment Assistant

Design at Goldsmiths is about questioning. Our students develop critical, conceptual design practices, which both challenge our understanding of the world around us and define new concepts for our future. The role of the Administrative Team, within the Department of Design, is to support all aspects of a lively and dynamic department, with four primary areas of responsibility - recruitment, assessment, information signposting, and both staff and student wellbeing.

The Assessment Assistant will be required to assist with the running of the departmental office and the submission and return of student assessments. They will be responsible for the administration and maintenance of attendance records, whilst responding to department enquiries in a positive and approachable manner. They are central to the team’s support of the department and will often be the first point of contact in the Design Office.

 The Department of Design is predominantly Mac based so familiarity with Mac computers would be advantageous.

The successful candidate will demonstrate:

• Excellent communication, IT and organisational skills
• In-person support experience
• Experience of generating and maintaining office systems
• Ideally, experience of Higher Education administrative processes
