**Employer Engagement Partner (TESS)**:
Job description

This is a key role in the successful delivery of the Targeted Employability Support for Students programme (GO Wales) within the University of South Wales working within a dedicated TESS Team and closely with the wider Careers & Employability Service.

The programme is funded by the Welsh Government, through the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales (HEFCW), and operates pan-Wales supporting under-represented / disadvantaged students who are furthest from the labour market to improve their employability.

This role will work creatively with employers and under-represented / disadvantaged students to deliver quality employer focused experiences, work experience, and other employer engagement opportunities for students.

Under-represented / disadvantaged students will be supported to improve their “career confidence” moving them closer to the labour market through work experience, career coaching / skills development, and engagement with employers.

Students will be helped through intensive 1-2-1 career coaching and guidance, group workshops / webinars, asynchronous resources, engagement with employers / work experience, and other specialist interventions that compliment the core employability and enterprise offer.

Applicants for the post should be able to demonstrate experience of working in a role related to the provision of work experience, placements, recruitment, funding and training; have experience of working in a project based, target driven environment; have good labour market knowledge; experience of business and student engagement; and a good understanding of the issues related to students and graduates seeking work experience / employment.

This is a fixed term post to 31 July 2023 in the first instance, in line with current external funding.
