Placements Administrator (0.7 FTE)Part-Time, PermanentSalary: £23,073 - £25,977 per annum pro rataLocation: Bournemouth Campus
Health Sciences University (HSU: formerly AECC University College) is a specialist health sciences institution dedicated to excellent education, clinical care and applied research.
Following the recent approval of our new university title HSU in July 2024 and the merger of the University College of Osteopathy into the HSU family from 1st August 2024, the institution is in a phase of growth and transformation across our campuses in Bournemouth and central London.
We are highly values-driven, inspired by our mission to ‘create a healthier society through education, research and clinical care’ with highly dedicated and capable staff and students working together within a caring and inclusive community. We are part-way through delivering our Strategic Plan 2021-2026, entitled Fit for the Future, which we will refresh in the coming weeks to reflect recent institutional changes.
HSU delivers a diverse and growing portfolio of pre- and post-registration academic provision and research in allied health and related disciplines and substantial CQC-registered clinical and imaging services that provide high-quality care for our staff, students, and local communities. These facilities create a unique offering in higher education for our students to gain valuable practice learning experience onsite, support local and regional NHS partners, and to provide a data-rich research environment for our students, staff and partners.
Partnership working sits at the heart of what we do as an agile and collaborative higher education provider and clinical provider, responding to the workforce, educational and clinical needs of our external stakeholders and supporting our communities as an established anchor institution. As we continue to develop in Dorset and London, we must create a more strategically informed approach to partnership as a multi-professional centre of excellence for healthcare education, clinical care and research locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.
We provide a vibrant and positive inter-professional learning and practice environment within a caring and inclusive community.
