Description

The University of Exeter currently employs third party consultants to act on behalf of the University in selected overseas regions. These regions have been identified as strategically important for international student recruitment and partnership activity. These consultants are managed by the third party entity and work exclusively with the respective regional manager or main contact within the University of Exeter International Office. These consultants will then be seen as official representatives within carrying out extensive operations for the institution as well as acting as a point of contact for key stakeholders across the stated region. The current international student recruitment landscape is challenging with increasing competition both at home and in other overseas study abroad destinations and having the option to offer a consistent presence in market is seen as a key objective to remain competitive.
