We are looking for an Education Coordinator on a full-time basis.

Content and Responsibilities

You will be organized under Joint Operational Support and placed at the administration office of the Faculty of Technology and Society, with your workplace at Niagara. The Faculty of Technology and Society includes the Department of Computer Science and Media Technology and the Department of Materials Science and Applied Mathematics. The environment is international, with teachers, researchers, and students from over 25 different nationalities. The position involves educational planning and dimensioning of education as well as case processing.

As an Education Coordinator, you will work closely with the faculty's management and the institutions' deputy deans for education, both strategically and operationally, regarding educational planning and the educational offer. The work includes planning, follow-up, and analysis concerning content and dimensioning. Central to the role is working with the faculty's educational forecasts and supporting the institutions' forecasting work. Examples of tasks within the Education Coordinator's area of responsibility include:

• maintaining an overview and ensuring that the institutions' educational administrative processes function and deadlines are met,
• responsible for coordinating the offer and ensuring the educational offer is correct,
• setting up program occasions and structures,
• responsible for the faculty's internal admissions process, including checking planning figures and following up on forecasts, monitoring the educational offer, coordinating admission, registration, and place guarantees,
• providing support in educational administrative matters to the faculty management, the institutions' deputy deans for education, and program leaders,
• supporting the operations regarding laws, regulations, and university-internal rules.

In addition to the tasks mentioned above, you will also serve as a case processor in the faculty's education board and the undergraduate education committee. The Education Coordinator also acts as a case processor for matters such as educational plans, course syllabi, routines, guidelines, as well as the discontinuation and establishment of courses and programs.

Administration in other areas may also be included.

The role of Education Coordinator implies that you need to collaborate with many employees in a complex environment. Your role is an important resource for creating the conditions to work systematically with the faculty's educational offer and educational administrative issues.

Qualifications

You must have an academic education that the employer deems relevant and very good experience of qualified work with educational administration within the higher education sector. You have worked with educational planning or qualified processing of education.

As an Education Coordinator, you have a central role in supporting the institutions' educational work, which places great demands on your ability to collaborate, be solution-oriented, and approach tasks in a non-hierarchical manner. At the same time, the role requires you to be proactive and constructive, as the educational administrative processes you work with have clear deadlines. The work with educational planning and follow-up also requires you to be analytical and able to see and explain connections in a pedagogical way. The role of Education Coordinator also presupposes that you have a good understanding of the university as a public authority and have a good ability to interpret and apply regulations within your area of competence. The workload can be high during certain periods, which is why it is important that you can plan and prioritize your work.

We work daily in a number of different data systems, and you need to have a developed system understanding and be comfortable learning new digital tools. You master university-common tools such as Ladok, Utbildningsinfo, and Canvas, and have good knowledge of application systems such as NyA. You are a regular user of Microsoft 365. The university is an international environment, and the operations presuppose that you have very good knowledge of English and Swedish in both speech and writing. We place great emphasis on personal suitability. We will make a holistic assessment and hire the person who has the best prerequisites to perform and develop the work tasks described above.
