We have an exciting opportunity in the Disability & Dyslexia Support Service for someone with a passion for supporting the academic progress of students with barriers to learning who wants to use their skills in supporting adults or young people to make an impact on the student experience.

As a specialist mentor, you will be providing specifically tailored, one-to-one support which helps disabled students address the barriers to learning created by a particular impairment. The role focuses on practical strategies and management aimed at promoting the student’s independence and autonomy. You will be responsible for providing mentoring to students with various and sometimes complex conditions including Autism Spectrum Conditions, ADHD, mental health conditions, communication or organisation difficulties and medical conditions. You will build professional working relationships with a caseload of students combining a person-centred approach with an understanding of the student’s condition, to support students with their academic progress. You will play a pivotal role in empowering students to develop the skills and awareness needed for successful learning.

This post is part-time working 21 hours per week (for 34.5 weeks per year during the academic semesters) Working days to be either Mon, Wed, Thurs or Friday (exact pattern to be agreed)

We’re one of the best not-for-profit organisations to work for in the UK. The University’s Total Reward Package includes a competitive salary, a generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement, as well as access to a range of learning and development courses to support your personal and professional development.

We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
