Carys leads the Progression to HE Team to ensure that our data and insight influences the shape of the sector. Since joining UCAS in October 2014, Carys has taken a lead role in understanding the impact of the changing policy environment on us and our customers. Most recently, authoring two landmark reports: Who are the ‘future nurses’? – understanding the spike in appetite to study nursing post-pandemic – and Where next? – shedding light on how and why international students make choices. She also led on a two-year project to develop and launch our corporate strategy, Discover Your Future. Carys previously held the post of Postgraduate Admissions Manager at Arden University. A linguist by trade, graduating from the University of Bath with a first-class honours degree in 2011, Carys also has a Postgraduate Diploma in Business Administration.
Last year, Carys took a break from the workplace, taking maternity leave following the birth of her son – she is excited to be back in the sector and ready to take on new challenges.
