Student Experience Officer (FTC until July 2026)

About the role

An exciting opportunity has become available for a Student Experience Officer to join the School’s Undergraduate team on a fixed-term basis until July 2026.

Working in collaboration with the existing Undergraduate Student Experience Team, you will take responsibility for supporting students from pre-arrival, through to graduation. You will also be required to work closely with students to encourage student-led initiatives and work with university colleagues to develop collaborative enhancement projects.

This very diverse role requires enthusiasm, initiative, and a proactive style. An empathetic approach is required when dealing with individual student concerns. Team working skills are essential: the flexibility to cope with changing circumstances, cooperation with colleagues, and the ability to pre-emptively share information. You will need to be able to demonstrate excellent communication skills, tact, diplomacy, and cross-cultural sensitivity.
