You’ll work closely with the Officer team to plan, manage, and evaluate projects that shape the student experience – from defining objectives and establishing clear timelines to coordinating resources and mitigating risks. You can expect to navigate complex and politically sensitive environments, balancing the different priorities of our Officer team. 
 

 Your work will include developing clear project roadmaps, implementing effective communication strategies to engage the student community, and supporting our Officers to engage with national campaigns that impact student wellbeing.

This is a fast-paced, varied role where your ability to research, organise and innovate will make a tangible difference to thousands of students.
