Summary of the role

The wellbeing and welfare of our students is of paramount importance. This is an exciting opportunity to make a genuine impact in the lives of our students, by ensuring they understand the extensive wellbeing provision we have across our campuses and how to access it.  The role includes, but is not limited to, the rollout of the new wellbeing system, supporting the recently re-launched student wellbeing website, as well as communicating on all aspects of student wellbeing support.

A passion for mental health and wellbeing is an advantage.
