About the role:

Based in the University's Career Development Service (CDS), you will join our Student Progression Team working with our three academic Colleges to provide relevant, timely and targeted career and employability development support to students.


As a Student Progression Assistant, you will support one of the Colleges and work closely with underrepresented student groups to encourage, direct, and support students to access relevant careers and employability development support.

A variety of activities are used to signpost this support for students, from drop-in sessions and workshops, call campaigns, lecture shout-outs and various online initiatives.


About you:

Ideally, you will have some experience of working within a customer or student facing environment, particularly with experience of planning and organising work activities.

You should have experience working both as part of a team, and under your own initiative.


You must demonstrate strong written and verbal communication skills, and be committed to helping students secure rewarding and meaningful careers.

When you join us, you'll become part of a community of Citizens of Change, which includes not only our staff and our current students but also thousands of Leicester graduates around the world.

As a diverse and forward-thinking employer, we embed the principles of equality, diversity and inclusion into everything we do.

That includes not just our core missions of teaching and research, but also our support for staff, students and our local community.


We're committed to the wellbeing of all our staff and to the sustainability of our environment, on our campus and beyond.

We offer a competitive salary package, excellent pension scheme and a generous annual leave allowance, along with opportunities to develop your career in a supportive and collaborative environment.
