Mae Coleg Gwyr Abertawe yn un o golegau addysg bellach arweiniol Cymru ac mae’n ymrwymedig i ragoriaeth a gwneud cyfraniad hirbarhaol i dyfiant a llwyddiant y cymunedau bywiog yr ydym yn eu gwasanaethu.

Diolch i’n staff ymroddedig a dawnus, rydym yn gallu darparu cyfleoedd dysgu a hyfforddi rhagorol i bobl ifanc, oedolion a chyflogwyr ar draws de-orllewin Cymru.

Mae’n amser cyffrous i ni ar hyn o bryd wrth i ni gymryd y cam nesaf yn ein strategaeth ar gyfer tyfiant, gyda ffocws clir ar fanteisio ar y cyfleoedd niferus y mae ein henw da fel sefydliad arweiniol yn eu denu.

Mae’r Coleg bellach yn dymuno penodi Deon Cyfadran newydd.

Mae gan yr ymgeisydd llwyddiannus gyfle i siapio hunaniaeth Cyfadran a fydd yn cwmpasu tair neu bedair o Feysydd Dysgu, ac i gymryd arweiniad strategol traws-golegol ar ddarpariaeth benodol megis cyrsiau Safon Uwch. Gwneir hyn drwy ddefnyddio arbenigedd a phrofiad blaenorol yr ymgeisydd llwyddiannus.

Bydd y Deon yn atebol i’r Dirprwy Bennaeth a bydd yn aelod o Dîm Rheoli’r Coleg. Bydd yn chwarae rhan bwysig wrth bennu strategaeth ehangach y Coleg a rheoli ei gweithrediad.

Mae sgiliau arwain, cyfathrebu, trefnu, arloesi a chynllunio rhagorol yn ofynnol i’r rôl hon a bydd gan ymgeiswyr hanes ardderchog o weithio’n gydweithredol ac adeiladu perthnasoedd cryf yn fewnol ac yn allanol.
