Closing Date:   Wednesday 01 July 2026
Interview Date:   See advert
Reference:   UUK01626

This role sits within the Policy and Global Engagement (PaGE) team at UUK International (UUKi). The PaGE team exists to influence the policy, funding, and operational environment surrounding international higher education so that our member universities can realise their international ambitions and maximise their global impact. Alongside this, our global engagement work also helps ensure UK universities have access to key stakeholders in partner countries from around the world. The team also collaborates closely with colleagues in the Partnerships and External Affairs (PEA) team to create impactful research, insights, publications and events.

This is an important role which brings together two important areas of university international activities – TNE and responsible internationalisation. You will have a mixed portfolio covering UUKi’s work supporting members to sustainably grow their TNE provision around the world, while also working with the sector to ensure that our international partnerships and collaborations are safe, secure, and trusted. 

As part of UUKi’s Policy and Global Engagement team, you will have the opportunity to work with international stakeholders, government officials, and policymakers, while building your expertise and professional profile across two important areas of UUKi’s work. You will provide high-quality information, advice, and guidance; develop UUKi’s policy positions, play a key role in our work programmes, and help to ensure that we deliver positive outcomes for our members, and have a demonstrable impact on the policy and operational environment for universities.  

Interviews are expected to take place on Tuesday 21 July 2026.

Due to active reviewing of submitted applications, this advertisement may close before the scheduled deadline. Interested parties are therefore encouraged to submit their applications early in order to avoid disappointment.
