Job description

Please Note: We are unable to accept applications via external sites and email. Please apply via our website.

Are you passionate about campaigning, building movements and empowering students to lead change? 

We are looking for a strategic and politically astute Head of Student Campaigns to lead the development of a powerful, inclusive student movement. This is a unique opportunity to shape how students engage with democracy, activism, and changemaking across the University of Manchester and beyond.

As Head of Student Campaigns, you’ll lead a team focused on building a stronger and more inclusive student movement. You’ll design and deliver projects that increase student participation in changemaking, support democratic engagement, and ensure marginalised voices are heard and represented. Working closely with elected student leaders and colleagues across the organisation, you’ll help shape the future of student influence.

The Head of Student Campaigns will manage a team including the Senior Democracy Coordinator, Student Community Organisers, and report to the Associate Director of Student Influence.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead movement-building initiatives aligned with student priorities.
  • Develop and deliver training, events, and campaigns that mobilise students.
  • Increase participation in democratic processes, including student elections.
  • Build relationships with stakeholders across the university, city, and sector.
  • Ensure inclusive engagement, particularly for underrepresented student groups.
  • Embed project management practices to deliver impactful work at pace.

Essential Criteria

We welcome applicants from all educational backgrounds. You’ll need to demonstrate:

  • Experience in community organising or movement building
  • Strong project management and facilitation skills
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and lead a team effectively
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
  • Political awareness and sound judgement
  • Commitment to inclusivity, collaboration, and student empowerment

Why Join Us?

  • Great staff benefits
  • Hybrid working options
  • Clear progression pathways through our graded role structure
  • A supportive, inclusive, and values-driven workplace

Please read the full role profile before applying, as well as our guide to recruitment.
