Job description

The King’s College London Faculty of Natural, Mathematical and Engineering Sciences (NMES) is seeking a highly motivated and ambitious Global Placement Adviser.

We pride ourselves on being the trusted partner of choice in sourcing and developing talent for organisations around the world. King’s Careers & Employability seeks to enable and empower students, recent alumni, and researchers from all disciplines and walks of life, to gain the knowledge, skills and experiences they need to effectively navigate their lives and careers after university and achieve lifelong success. Working with faculties, our central Global Placements team within Employer Engagement develop and deliver provision for industry placements across a number of undergraduate programmes in Informatics and Chemistry with further expansion approved for Engineering and Mathematics.

The role will involve working closely with the Faculty Placements Manager, as well as the Associate Director (Education) within the Faculty, to deliver sector-leading year-in-industry/professional placement programmes within NMES.

You will support the full placement lifecycle with both students and employers, helping them to source and prepare for a position, deliver workshops and safeguarding visits whilst they are working and develop further employability skills once they are back at King’s.

You will work with the broader Work-based Learning unit and Employer Relations teams within King’s Careers & Employability and academic & professional services colleagues in faculty to cultivate and develop lasting connectivity with employers and hosts and with colleagues in faculty supporting wider ambitions for industry engagement, whilst ensuring parity of student experience at the heart of delivery.

This post will be offered on a fixed-term contract for 1 year
