You will be comfortable working under pressure, demonstrate patience and resilience, and have a strong commitment to accuracy, consistency, and excellent customer service.

Your ability to organise your workload, adapt to changing priorities, and maintain attention to detail will be essential. You will also be flexible in managing your time, including avoiding peak leave periods for the team.

What We Offer

Joining the Student Casework Team means becoming part of a supportive, people‑centred environment that values continuous improvement and innovation.
