Being a student is a lot of fun!

Being somewhere new, studying the subject of your choice, making life-long friends and ultimately learning the person you want to be.

Often university is the start of most people being in charge of their own finances.

Whether you are looking to cover expenses, nights out or begin saving, a part-time job can be a big help.

Student Ambassador:

Working as a student ambassador can mean a lot of different things! We are there to help both current and prospective students and visitors to the university.

This can be through many ways:

• Greeting visitors and explaining student life and the courses we study in person at open days.
• Campus tours to show the facilities we have on offer.
• Answering questions on Unibuddy.
• Visiting/ hosting schools for outreach to help young people with deciding on what to do after school.
• Or even writing blogs!

Community Warden:

The Community Warden Scheme works with students and the local community to address concerns, individual and general, to keep harmony between the university and the local area.

Community Wardens work in multiple areas to signpost the university’s services and give advice to students as they navigate living away from home including:

• Recycling workshops – helping students be more sustainable.
• Noise awareness – informing students of how loud noises can affect their neighbours.
• How to be safe while drinking.

For information on Community Warden’s please see.

If you have shop experience or want to learn this could be a great job for you!
