This is a fantastic career development opportunity to join the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences Employability Team as the Faculty Employability Officer with a focus on internships, work-based learning modules and one to one student appointments. You will work closely with employers and with colleagues in Careers to primarily generate, develop and co-ordinate internships, work-based learning and other employability activity within the Faculty.

This is an opportunity to join the Faculty’s Employability team during a period of development, and to make a real contribution towards student employability within the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. Our goals are to increase student employability and enhance student experience and this role is key to ensure the ongoing success of the FASS internship scheme and work-based learning modules.

You should have excellent organisational and administration skills including the ability to multi-task, and the ability to self-motivate and manage your own workload.

Experience of working in a student facing role and an understanding of student employability needs is essential.

This is a Bailrigg campus-based role but there is some flexibility for those who prefer to work some of the time remotely. It is an indefinite, part-time role of 22 hours per week, spread over 3-5 days a week.
