• Catering & College Events Administrator (please scroll down for more details)

St John’s College is inviting applications for a Catering & College Events Administrator to play an important role in supporting the operations of the College.

The Catering & College Events Administrator works as part of a wider team of administrative and operational staff across the College, while having ownership for specific and specialised remits. As part of their shared remit, this team will staff the Reception during office hours, deliver core residential and student services, and provide administrative support where required across the College.
