Do you want to make change in the world?
Do you like to be creatively and intellectually challenged?
Do you love working with students, apprentices and young people?
Do you see education as a transformative force for individuals and society?
If you answered ‘Yes!’ then we’d love to hear from you.
Who we are
We’re one of the world’s largest student movements. Together with our 450 member students’ unions and 7 million students and apprentices, NUS are fighting to make education, and the world, better. We believe that education should be accessible and enjoyable for all – and our community of students, educators, activists and advocates are determined to make it happen.
Who you are
We're looking for a Public Affairs Consultant dedicated to building strong relationships and delivering lobbying activity that make students more powerful in Westminster. You might have previously worked as a Public Affairs Assistant in a membership, education or campaigning organisation, you might have experience working in an MP’s office or on the campaign trail and be looking for your next move, or you might have honed your representation, research and influencing skills in a students' union.
We're a small team with huge ambition and student leadership right at the centre. You might be supporting our officers to appear in front of a Select Committee one day, then using your relationships to secure a set of lobbying meetings another day. You might be welcoming 50 student leaders to Westminster to speak to our APPG and rounding off your week supporting a students' union with their own campaigns. If you think this sounds exciting and you're keen to be constantly learning new things and approaches, then this is the role for you.
Why apply?

We see anti-oppression as central to our mission. Education isn’t working unless it’s working for everyone in our society. We’re trans inclusive without exception and we welcome individuals who are up for taking active responsibility for their own ongoing learning on liberation, equity, diversity and inclusion.
We recognise that candidates from Black, Asian and Minoritised-Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds are under-represented in our organisation, and that there are often additional barriers present for people from these groups when applying for roles in the non-profit sector and beyond.
