Manchester Metropolitan University is one of the UK's largest and most popular Universities.

The Faculty of Education has a strong national reputation for its work across the education disciplines and professions. The faculty is a vibrant, creative and exciting place to work with a supportive management team that encourages fresh ideas. In 2011, its primary and secondary teacher training provision was judged to be outstanding by Ofsted. It is widely recognised for its innovative commercial projects and is judged internationally excellent in educational research.

The Faculty is also active in international exchange, collaboration and research. Recent years have seen considerable growth in the number of international students enrolled on the Faculty's Programmes. Many students spend time abroad as part of their course, and we have exchange agreements with a number of universities, welcoming students from many European countries, the USA, Hong Kong, Japan, Australia and other countries.

We are actively engaged in educational and research collaboration with universities in a range of countries within and beyond Europe. Staff of the faculty's Education and Social Research Institute  http://www.esri.mmu.ac.uk/  are recognised internationally, and work with colleagues in Europe and beyond to conduct research in their fields

The Faculty has extensive experience in international work. We have organised and run bespoke courses in the UK and overseas for Ministries of Education, universities and groups of educators and education administrators from all regions of the world, including China, Japan, the UAE, Pakistan, Slovenia, Indonesia and South Africa. Faculty staff have extensive experience in international consultancy, including World Bank and UNESCO projects.

Your key task will be to continue to develop and sustain international academic partnerships and to continue to recruit, develop and grow international provision beyond Europe. The faculty has clear targets to recruit full-time international students to its UK courses and this is a major aspect of the role.
