UCS College Group

University Centre Somerset (UCS) is a high-quality Centre of Higher Education, part of UCS College Group. UCS and the College have an excellent record for the delivery of HE programmes working with several valued partner Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). UCS is at an exciting and pivotal point in its future as we move towards our strategic priority of transforming Somerset through University Education and our continued growth of diverse study programmes and subjects.

The post holder will be a key role within UCS, working with exceptional colleagues within the central HE Team and wider College, to provide oversight and support for the design, validation, and re-validation of degree-level programmes and qualifications. Including, but not limited to, Higher Nationals, Foundation, Bachelors and Top-Up Degrees. Alongside design and oversight will be ensuring compliance with HEI and Award Body regulations and requirements. This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a stimulating and rewarding environment, based in the heart of Somerset.

The realising of the vision for Higher Education in Somerset has started with UCS and the College becoming the first FE college to gain the consent of both the Nursing & Midwifery Council (NMC) and its university partner, University of the West of England (UWE) to deliver nursing degrees. The College was also the first FE College to be invited and accepted into the Council of Deans of Health as an Associate Member and now sits alongside university healthcare faculties at the heart of policy and political debate. In addition, the College has become the Further Education representative on NHS England's Southwest Region Nursing and Midwifery Supply Board, actively contributing to removing barriers to health careers. Most recently the College was awarding the Queens Anniversary Prize for the collaborative work with the NHS and UWE to create this groundbreaking approach. As well as nursing, UCS also has a key role in the delivery of Degree Apprenticeships across the Nuclear sector through the National College for Nuclear (NCfN), also in partnership with our university partner UWE. With several exciting direct entry and higher/degree apprenticeship pathways currently in development and pipelined for development in other allied health professions and other sectors, it truly is an exciting time to join our team at UCS.

We are looking for a detail-focused individual, who will provide highly effective curriculum and process support and have a key role in preparing documentation, understanding data, and working to support and contribute towards both internal and partner processes.
