Maynooth University is committed to a strategy in which the primary University goals of excellent research and scholarship and outstanding education are interlinked and equally valued.

We are seeking a Senior Executive Assistant to provide marketing and recruitment support for micro-credential courses. The successful candidate will make a crucial contribution to the success of the University's Micro-credentials project by ensuring that courses are widely promoted through digital and print channels, including social media, and that prospective students have access to clear information on their options.

Reporting to the Micro-credentials Project Lead, the Senior Executive Assistant will work closely with academic staff and colleagues to understand the University's Micro-credentials offering, identity innovative strategies to promote them to the intended audience and implement these strategies to budget and in line with University strategy.

The Irish Universities Association (IUA) is the representative body of the university sector and has secured funding for the project to develop a Multi-Campus Micro-Credentials system in Irish Universities, providing a coherent national framework for quality assured and accredited micro-credentials. This full-time contract position is funded by this project.

The MicroCreds project is funded through the Higher Education Authority's Human Capital Initiative, aimed at establishing a system of quality assured and accredited micro-credentials across the seven IUA universities. MicroCreds provides up/re-skilling opportunities to those in employment and those seeking to enhance their employability, and aims to drive lifelong learning in Ireland, in close collaboration with enterprise. The MicroCreds project develops a collective national framework for micro-credentials across the universities; builds engagement with enterprise for the development and roll-out of the micro-credentials programmes; and develops a co-ordinated 'shop window' portal to drive awareness of micro-credentials.

The post is based in the Admissions and Student Recruitment office.
