Southampton, United Kingdom University of Southampton Full time

**2218923TR**

**Make a difference to the next generation**

We have an exciting new opportunity for a Placement Officer working with the prestigious Southampton Business School. This is a unique opportunity to support students with the next stage of their careers. Joining a deeply ambitious team in the Business School, you will have the scope to work with academia, employers and students alike, helping our graduates embark on the brightest careers.

As a member of the Placements team, you will support existing undergraduate student placements, ensuring students receive specialist advice and guidance to make the most of their placements and help them succeed in a competitive employment market.

This is a role where you can genuinely change lives, working closely with local, national, and international employers to encourage placement opportunities for our Business School students. You will visit students on placement, organise employer engagement events ensuring all activities run smoothly and efficiently. You will also have an opportunity to meet new students at the university visit and open day events.

Many students have never experienced a work placement before and so the role is of critical importance as you will be the focal point, guiding them and matching aspirations with employers.

What do you consider to be the points of engagement in a student’s placement journey and how would you support them at those points of engagement?

**About You**

You will be adaptable, flexible, proactive, and forward thinking. You will have strong interpersonal skills and a positive and enthusiastic approach. Excellent organisational skills with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines are also essential requirements. You will have strong IT skills, particularly in the use of Microsoft (Word, Excel).

**What we can offer you**

As well as additional benefits that will make your life easier, such as a generous holiday allowance and additional university closure days. We will support your long-term future too, with pension scheme membership, subsidised health and fitness facilities and a range of discounts. Our excellent family leave arrangements include maternity, paternity, adoption and parental.
