MIS Office Assistant (Business Administration L3 Apprentice) - REF 250161

Runshaw College has long been recognised as one of the most successful colleges in the country, renowned locally and nationally for our exceptional results, friendly and supportive culture and focus on putting the learner at the heart of all that we do.

Our shared vision provides the focus for our work: to be a Great Place to Study, a Great Place to Work, and a Great Place for Partnerships. Please see the Strategic Plan on the college website, for full details of our vision and objectives.

The Quality, Management Information and Student Tracking (QMIST) team comprises 21 staff. The role of the college’s QMIST team is to support the College’s approach to quality and student tracking. For instance, by scanning for developments in the external environment, QMIST provides specialist advice to inform the formulation of the college’s policies and procedures in the areas of quality, funding, audit (ILR) and student tracking. QMIST contributes directly to the effective and efficient operation of the college’s procedures in these areas through its day-to-day operations plus the on-going provision of specialist information, advice and guidance to other college staff. QMIST facilitates key processes, functions, services and the use of systems. The department must maintain these to ensure day-to-day processes continue. It also looks to innovate through the use of third-party software and process improvements to impact positively on the performance of the College.

The Business Administration Apprentice will play an important role in providing efficient and effective administrative and clerical support to the QMIST team. Duties may change from time-to-time to meet changing circumstances but will include all the duties deemed appropriate to supporting the function. These will include general office duties like answering the telephone and processing data. The successful candidate will have to demonstrate keen customer focus and high levels of accuracy in their work, especially when entering data onto the College MIS system and working with colleagues across the college. The successful applicant will also be able to demonstrate high level skills in IT, literacy and be positive and friendly. 

We are seeking to appoint an individual who will undertake further training and complete an Apprenticeship Programme.
