Jobs at Bath | Student Support and Safeguarding /jobs/Vacancies.aspx?cat=464&type=5 Latest job vacancies at Bath <![CDATA[Disability Advisor (CC13191)]]> /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=CC13191 /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=CC13191 Student Support & Safeguarding is seeking to appoint an experienced professional to this exciting role, with responsibility for providing disability related information and advice to students seeking guidance and support.

About the role

Working as part of the Disability Service you will provide high-quality advice and support to disabled students by assessing and identifying needs, recommending relevant and personalised reasonable adjustments that enable them to access their studies and remove barriers to their success. This will include assisting students to access specialist funded support such as Disabled Student Allowance (DSA) to help meet their individual support needs.

You will work collaboratively to co-ordinate support across a range of University professional services, academic departments and external agencies regarding disabled student cases, establishing and maintaining strong working relationships with colleagues to ensure effective signposting and referrals in response to risk, complex need or specialist services.

A significant proportion of your time will be spent conducting appointments with students. Most appointments will be in person (on Âé¶¹´«Ã½ premises), although you will at times also meet with students remotely (especially during the pre-arrival period).

You will:

  • have experience of casework management relating to students or clients with disabilities, mental health difficulties or long-term medical conditions
  • possess a thorough knowledge of equality and diversity principles and legislative requirements
  • be able to demonstrate an ability to self-organise, set priorities and work flexibly and effectively as part of a team.

Further information

This is a full-time role (36.5) hours per week.

The department offers hybrid working, with a requirement to undertake in-person engagement with our student cohort. The current expectation is for 3 days in-person working on University sites and 2 days working from home. However, the exact number of days on campus each week may need to alter in relation to student demand through the year. The department supports flexible working requests and encourages these to be explored through the recruitment process, although the student-facing nature of this role and the requirement to provide a face-to-face service means that your days working on campus will need to be agreed and committed to as part of your team’s overall operational planning.  

For an informal discussion about this position please contact Susan Fielding, Disability Service Team Lead (ss280@bath.ac.uk) or Steven Lawrence, Deputy Director, Student Access and Advice (sgl21@bath.ac.uk).

A Disclosure & Barring Service check will be required for this role.
