An exciting opportunity has arisen for an individual to join our Student Communities Team based in Sunderland. The team supports a wide range of student leadership activity, including officer support, societies, student representation, volunteering, and campaigns.

We are in our first year of fully implementing our new approach to student-led change and democratic engagement, following on from a successful first full year of the Student Communities Team structure and paid part-time student officers in 2025/26. The post holder will need to demonstrate how they meet the essential criteria outlined in the job description and person specification within their application statement, providing clear and specific examples of relevant experience.
