We are looking for two postgraduate community organisers to work alongside students and elected Officers to understand the issues affecting postgraduates, bring people together, and support them to take action.
There are two roles available: one focusing on Postgraduate Taught students and one focusing on Doctoral students.
You don't need to have worked in community organising before. Student leadership, volunteering, campaigning, society involvement, part-time work and other experiences can all give you relevant skills for this role.
The primarily purpose of this role is to amplify postgraduate voices and improve their student experience. This could include:
- Building relationships with postgraduate students to better understand their experiences, priorities and concerns.
- Developing and improving how the SU communicates with postgraduate students, ensuring communications are relevant, engaging and accessible.
- Connecting postgraduate student leaders, including representatives, peer mentors, societies and other student-led groups, helping them work together to strengthen postgraduate communities.
- Working with SU Officers, student leaders, University staff and other stakeholders to identify key issues affecting postgraduate students and support action to address them.
- Bringing students together around shared interests, experiences and concerns, helping them develop campaigns, projects and activities that improve the postgraduate experience.
- Gathering feedback, insights and evidence to inform campaigns, priorities and service improvements.
- Reviewing existing postgraduate initiatives and identifying opportunities for growth and improvement.
These roles are designed to be flexible, offering post holders the opportunity to develop and implement their own ideas alongside helping shape how the SU engages with postgraduate students.
If you:
- Enjoy meeting new people and building positive relationships.
- Are interested in strengthening communities and helping students feel more connected.
- Enjoy listening to others and understanding different perspectives.
- Can think creatively and identify opportunities for improvement.
- Are confident working independently and taking initiative.
- Can communicate effectively with a wide range of people.
- Have an interest in The SU and improving the postgraduate student experience.
Then this might be the role for you!
Location:This role will mostly be based in 1 East (Claverton Down campus) or other locations on campus. There may be the option to work from home for specific tasks (by prior agreement from line manager). You must be a registered student at the University of Bath (or will be) for the academic year 2026/27 to apply for this role.
