What skills and experience we're looking for

Looking for a role where you can take real ownership and see the wider impact of your work?

This is your chance to run the end-to-end admissions process for a college that stands apart from others. As the Admissions Officer at UTC Portsmouth, a STEM specialist college in Portsmouth, you’ll be the driving force behind how future students and families discover us - guiding them from first interest all the way to enrolment.

Taking the lead on both our Year 10 and Year 12 intake, you will be working closely with the Marketing Manager to take those initial interests through to confirmed places. It’s a role with real autonomy - but with the support of a wider team to help you succeed. As the Admissions Officer, you will have access to the systems, technology and support you need to thrive.

UTC Portsmouth doesn’t feel like a typical school - and this is because we aren’t. We are a specialised STEM college, the only one of its kind in the local area. Our students are here because they want to be, and they feel part of something unique, with a shared love of STEM.

As the Admissions Officer, you’ll be someone with a good grasp of IT, and confident in picking up new systems - though full training is provided. You’ll enjoy being organised, proactive and approachable, bringing strong communication skills to help families feel informed and supported throughout the process. No two days are the same, so you will be able to adapt to different requirements, including assisting with open days and careers events.

What the school offers its staff

We offer:

  • a modern, purpose built and well equipped college

  • highly competitive salaries and leave entitlements

  • state of the art facilities and resources

  • the opportunity to work with highly motivated students and parents

  • a small, cohesive and mutually supportive staff team

  • access to the Teacher Pension Scheme and Local Government Pension Scheme

  • established links to high profile employer partners and access to new and emerging partners

  • free access to an online Employee Benefits Portal offering access to a wide range of discounts and offers

  • free access to an Employee Assistance Programme offering personal, physical, emotional and wellbeing advice and guidance

UTC Portsmouth presents a modern and very different opportunity in the area for teachers and students alike. Our students have made a conscious decision to choose us over their existing school or other FE options. They are passionate about science, technology (including computing), engineering and maths (STEM) while we also ensure a sound academic base through the high quality provision of GCSE and A Level English. They have been attracted by the opportunity to work with a wide range of committed employer partners and alongside like-minded students, both through their academic studies and through a range of employer-led projects. They expect to be taught by excellent teachers, and want to learn and be successful academically and professionally.

Leading and teaching in UTC Portsmouth will be challenging. But, it is highly rewarding, as many of our teachers have already found and you have the opportunity to shape UTC Portsmouth as it develops and, more importantly, shape the futures of many young people.
