ABOUT THE ROLE
Support (a) Academic Affairs and (b) the Presidium (especially the Referent of the Presidium responsible for Quality Assurance &
Accreditation) in making academic progress at CODE clear, fair, and easy to navigate—even when it’s complex. The role takes
ownership of routine, high-reliability operational tasks (data integrity, reporting, evaluations, documentation, and executive
coordination) to offload the current team—enabling Academic Affairs to focus on process improvement and automation going forward,
while CODE operates credibly under German higher education law.

troubleshooting).
Exportand compile evaluation data and distribute results to the right stakeholders.

What success looks like (first 3–6 months)
Student and exam records are up to date, with fewer back-and-forth corrections.
Recurring admin tasks run on time with clear checklists and handover notes.
Survey/evaluation runs are predictable (timeline, reminders, exports, distribution).
Statutory reporting and accreditation evidence are easy to locate and audit-ready.
Systems and folders feel clean and consistent: naming conventions, filing, and “single source of truth” habits.
