The Assistant Manager will support student-life programmes for graduate students, managing planning, administration, communications, events, budgets, and day-to-day operations. The role requires a degree, relevant experience in programme coordination, student services, higher education administration, or operations, along with strong organisational, communication, and stakeholder-management skills. Candidates should be comfortable working independently, handling multiple deadlines, analysing feedback or operational data, and coordinating with academic schools, service departments, student groups, and external partners. The successful candidate is expected to be service-oriented, detail-conscious, adaptable, and able to create meaningful student engagement experiences in a multicultural university environment.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major public research university located in Singapore. It is recognised internationally for strengths in engineering, technology, business, science, education, and interdisciplinary research. The university has a large, diverse community of undergraduate, postgraduate, academic, professional, and support staff, with students from Singapore and around the world. NTU operates a broad campus with teaching facilities, research institutes, student residences, sports amenities, cultural spaces, and extensive student-support services. Its work environment combines academic excellence with innovation, global partnerships, sustainability, and industry collaboration. Administrative and professional staff contribute to student development, programme delivery, institutional planning, and the smooth operation of the university. This position supports graduate student life and programme operations within that wider educational and research ecosystem.
Singapore offers opportunities in education, technology, finance, healthcare, engineering, logistics, hospitality, and research. The country is multicultural, highly connected, and generally safe, with English widely used at work. Life is convenient: public transport is efficient, healthcare is strong, and food ranges from inexpensive hawker meals to international dining. Housing can be costly, especially near central areas, so many newcomers compare room rentals, university accommodation, and suburban apartments. Work visa options depend on qualifications and salary; professionals commonly use an Employment Pass or S Pass, with the employer usually submitting the application. Candidates should confirm eligibility and current requirements with Singapore’s Ministry of Manpower. Singapore has a tropical climate, frequent rain, and warm temperatures throughout the year. For relocation, budget carefully for rent, deposits, insurance, transport, and daily expenses, and arrange documentation before arrival. NTU’s campus in the west is well served by buses and nearby MRT connections.
