What you’ll be doing
You'll be the heartbeat of our societies programme, the go-to person for Culture & Identity, Special Interest and Sports groups across campus. No two days will look the same. One morning you might be advising a student committee on planning a large-scale event; the afternoon could see you delivering a training session, reviewing a risk assessment, or building relationships with University partners.
You’ll coordinate everything from Welcome Week to Global Week, support student leaders to create inclusive, engaging activities, and design training opportunities that genuinely help volunteers grow. You’ll also play a key role in removing barriers to participation – making sure every student, whoever they are, can find their place in campus life.
Who we’re looking for
You’re organised, approachable, and thrive in a fast-paced environment. You understand what makes student communities tick, and you care enough to do the detail properly, from GDPR compliance to safeguarding checks. You build trust quickly, handle conflict with calm and fairness, and you’re the kind of person who leaves things better than you found them.
Experience in student activities, events coordination, or a similar role would be a strong advantage.
Why join us
This is a role with real scope. As we move into a new academic year, you’ll have a genuine opportunity to shape what our societies programme looks like – developing groups to their full potential and creating a student experience that students will remember long after they graduate.
We are fully committed to Equality and Diversity, and welcome applications from all backgrounds.
