Fourth Monkey

Fourth Monkey, the home of innovative and transformative actor training, is looking for a student services professional to help develop our student experience. You will join a small and dedicated community of professionals at Fourth Monkey. Your specific responsibility will be to develop our support services for students from general advice to disability support. We are a small training establishment and offer actor/maker CertHE and BA degrees. You will join a Student Experience and Academic Services team. We are looking for a compassionate and thoughtful person interested in providing support to a diverse community of artists. You might be someone looking to step up into a management role or you might be stepping away from a larger university. You ll have experience in one or more areas of student services and have been involved in supporting students experiencing difficult times. You will help us with imaginative ways of sourcing help for students and the role will mean you work with the whole Fourth Monkey team from the teaching practitioners to fundraising. Experience of working with creative arts students would be helpful but is not essential. Experience of supporting students is essential. This is a revised role designed to support Fourth Monkey in creating appropriate arrangements to support the student experience and work closely with staff supporting the academic experience, admissions and Fourth Monkey s practitioners leading and delivering our courses. The role will include individual delivery of support for students, signposting them to online and digital support services offered by Falmouth University and developing and extending our own support services for students. It is essential that the post-holder has experience of implementing (at whatever level of support) appropriate safeguarding procedures to support students, including those with mental health crises. Please note that this role is likely to require a Disclosure and Barring Services check.
