In the field of Education, we are looking for a new Policy Advisor who will work closely together with our Academic Director of Education.

The team consists of 17 colleagues working in the broad field of Education Support: Academic Advice, Exchange, Internships, Career, Administration, Secretariat, Communication, Marketing, Recruitment, Education Policy and Facilities. Even though we all have our own main tasks, we help each other out in peak times. At UCG as part of Support Staff, you will be in close contact with our Academic Staff.
This temporary position is mainly focused in giving support to the Academic Director of Education, which whom you will work closely together with.
