Lou Allen

Having worked in two UK Universities supporting students I am pleased to be back in the learning environment. Previously I have managed a cohort of 350 Engineering students through their whole program of student from enrolment to graduation. Responsibilities included attending field and exam boards on behalf of students and acting as the first point of contact for timetabling, module choices, placements, extenuating circumstances and chairing student, staff committee meeting amongst other key roles.

I have also worked within the Student Advice Centre of the Student Union in Plymouth University (UK) which included supporting and signposting students in crisis and developing robust case note policies and procedures, and the National Apprenticeship Service as the lead for Marketing and Communications in the South West region of the UK.

After emigrating in 2012, I commenced my Flinders journey in 2015 where I worked in Rural and Remote Health, followed by Student Finance and Scholarships, Student Learning and Support Service and Executive Support.  I am now working within Operations at the College of Business, Government and Law.
