Director of Flexible Lifelong Learning

Welcome

An opportunity to make a lasting impact on learners, employers, and the wider tertiary education landscape, the Director will spearhead the development of a transformative service that expands our agile learning portfolio, drives new income streams, and strengthens our global reach. By building strategic partnerships and launching innovative offerings, the Director will position the University as we evolve towards provision that is “flexible by default” – aligned with Welsh Government priorities and responsive to evolving regulatory and market demands.

Cardiff University’s mission is to co-create and share new knowledge to deliver a better world for future generations. Our strategy, ‘Our future, together’, builds on our history, values, strengths, resources and networks to deliver on our ambitious plans and priorities. Our vision is to be a world-leading, research-excellent, and educationally outstanding global university with a transformative social, cultural and economic impact on Cardiff, Wales, the UK and the world.

Reporting to the University’s Chief Operating Officer and University Secretary, the Director of Flexible Lifelong Learning is an exciting new leadership opportunity to shape the future of flexible lifelong learning at the University.

If you feel that you have the skills, enthusiasm and drive to meet this challenge, we would love to hear from you. Full details of the role and responsibilities are set out in the job description.
