A specialist college within one of London’s leading academy trusts is looking for an ambitious Graduate Community Engagement Officer to help shape student life, build community partnerships and create opportunities that make a genuine difference for young adults with SEND.
This isn’t a graduate role where you’ll spend your days making coffee or updating spreadsheets.
As a Graduate Community Engagement Officer, you’ll lead projects, organise events, build relationships with businesses across Kingston upon Thames, and become an important part of the college’s leadership around student engagement.
If you’re confident, organised and full of ideas, this role offers an incredible opportunity to build experience that will set you apart.
- What You’ll Be Doing
- Build partnerships with businesses and organisations across Kingston upon Thames
- Organise student events, enrichment activities and educational trips
- Develop exciting opportunities for young adults with SEND
- Support student voice, leadership projects and Student Ambassadors
- Help grow the college’s alumni network
- Work alongside senior leaders to improve the student experience
- Represent the college within the local Kingston upon Thames community
- Why This Role Stands Out
Unlike many graduate positions, you’ll have genuine ownership of your work.
You’ll be trusted to make decisions, develop new ideas and manage projects with the support of an experienced leadership team.
Benefits Include
- Genuine autonomy from day one
- Hybrid working opportunities where appropriate
- Excellent professional development
- Support from experienced senior leaders
- Opportunity to build an extensive network across Kingston upon Thames
- Work for a large, respected academy trust with excellent career progression
- A varied role where no two days are the same
- The chance to make a real difference to young people’s lives
- Who We’re Looking For
- Confident communicators
- Highly organised
- Creative and solution-focused
- Comfortable building professional relationships
- Passionate about supporting young people
- Excited by a role with variety and responsibility
Graduates in Education, Psychology, Business, Marketing, Events Management, Sports Management, Sociology, Criminology, Communications, Public Relations and related subjects are all encouraged.
Knowledge of Kingston upon Thames or existing links within the local community would be an advantage.
A driving licence and access to a vehicle would be beneficial, although not essential, as you’ll spend time meeting local employers, charities and community organisations across Kingston upon Thames.
