The post-holder will work closely with the Enterprise Space Manager (who looks after the retail arm of not just a shop) to prepare and support student and alumni businesses with all aspects of selling.

The post-holder will line manage the Enterprise Administrator, who provides administrative support for enterprise funds, awards and projects. The role also has responsibility to support academic colleagues across the institution who are embedding enterprise into the curriculum.
