We are looking for a Policy Coordinator to support UKCISA’s authoritative policy, advice and advocacy work. This is a new role and will support processes and action relating to the organisation’s work on issues related to international students. Working within the Advice and Training team, the Policy Coordinator will support colleagues who analyse relevant legislation impacting international students, including student immigration. This work feeds into delivery of UKCISA’s core services – its advice to members and the public, its specialist training and its significant policy and advocacy work.
The Policy Coordinator will support influential and responsive liaison and advocacy, particularly on immigration policy and its interaction with international student experience. This will include monitoring trends from UKCISA’s advisory services and collating evidence from UKCISA’s diverse membership on issues impacting international students and those who work with them. The role will also provide essential support and administrative assistance to colleagues within the team. This includes updating UKCISA’s online information and advice and assisting in communicating key messages and policy briefs internally and to our members.
UKCISA’s Advice and Training function is a small team dedicated to providing advice and making technical legislation and guidance accessible to international students and key stakeholders. Our work is pre-emptive, reactionary and detailed and the Policy Coordinator will be key to facilitating our work and aiding our efficiency.
