You will play a vital role in maintaining strong professional relationships with current placement providers in an industry facing role whilst also proactively sourcing and developing opportunities to generate new placements. Your role will be focussed on supporting largely mechanical and electronic engineering students to secure roles in the automotive, aerospace or technology sectors.

In addition, you will be required to deliver skills workshops and talks and must be a confident, lively presenter to communicate to the student audience.

Placement Officers host companies on campus as well as visit them on site to promote the placement scheme. This is an exciting role supporting high achieving students at the start of their engineering careers.

The team currently work ona hybrid pattern with 60% or more of their time on campus.

This is a fixed term role providing parental cover with an expected end date of 30th September 2024. Due to the nature of the role and current team structure this role is being offered as a full-time position.

**About you**:

- Excellent organisational skills
- The ability to work alone and take initiative

- A strong attention to detail
- Good administrative record keeping
- A great teammate

**About us**:
We are an encouraging team of five Placement Officers, one Placements Manager and one Placements Administrator with the team a mixture of part-time and full-time staff. We benefit from being embedded in the Faculty but also maintaining strong links with the central careers service and other Faculty placement teams.
