Due to increased investment from the university we’re really excited to announce the recruitment for the role of Communities Development Coordinators.
 
Who we are
 
Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfill potential; we help make it happen.
 
About the job
 
We're looking for three Communities Development Coordinators to support, develop and grow student-led societies, sports clubs and other communities at Arts SU. This role is all about helping students get involved, whether that's through joining a student group, planning and running events or stepping up as a student leader. You'll be the first point of contact for over 100 student groups, providing tailored support, training and advice to help them thrive. From processing finance requests and booking spaces to helping deliver key events like Welcome Fair, Varsity, and Awards, you'll make sure students and colleagues have what they need to succeed. You'll oversee student group elections, manage the promotion of opportunities, and work with colleagues across UAL to create inclusive spaces where students are welcomed and engaged.
 
Who we are looking for
 
We want someone organised, approachable, and loves working with students. You should have experience planning and delivering events or projects, and ideally some knowledge of community development in education or the third sector. Good communication skills are key - you'll be supporting a wider range of student leaders and need to explain processes in simple accessible ways. You'll also need to be confident working with budgets and able to manage competing priorities. Flexibility and a positive, problem solving attitude are essential, as you'll often be working on multiple tasks or helping students troubleshoot challenges. More importantly, you'll be someone who values inclusivity, enjoys collaborating with colleagues and students, and doesn't mind working the occasional evening or weekend when big events are happening.
 
Why apply?
 
Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces.
 
Benefits and Perks
 
In return for your passion and experience, we offer:

• a summer 4-day working week - we have a four day working week during the months of July & August
• Generous holiday entitlement (up to 39 days) - 25 days holidays per year, increasing at the rate of one day per full year served after the end of your second year of employment up to a maximum of 5 days
• A three-week closure during the festive period incorporating the three UK bank holidays (Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year’s Day). This is approximately 12 additional leave days.
• A six-day closure during spring incorporating the two UK bank holidays (Good Friday and Easter Monday). Therefore, closure dates are from Thursday before Good Friday to Tuesday after Bank Holiday Monday. These are 2 additional leave days.
• Birthday Leave
• 2 days of Volunteering Leave
• Religious Festival Leave (up to 2 days)
• Cycle to Work scheme, enabling significant savings on bicycle purchase
• Flexible/ hybrid working arrangements
• Access to UAL staff training courses
• NUS card discount
• Enhanced maternity leave
• Family-friendly employer
• Interest-free travel loan
• Access to an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) offering free and totally confidential support on a range of topics, including coaching, wellbeing, legal and financial advice

 
How we recruit
 
We want to ensure all systems, policies and processes are free from bias or discrimination and are fair and accessible, therefore we ask that all candidates complete our Application Process in two stages:
 
Part 1 (Application Form) is all about you telling us about your suitability for the role and will be used to determine if you are shortlisted for interview.
 
Part 2 (Equal Opportunities Monitoring and Contact Form) is personal information – so we can contact you if you are shortlisted for the interview. It also helps us gather and analyse demographic information about our applicants. This part will only be seen by HR and will not have any impact on shortlisting.
 
Application forms are formatted to ensure the equality monitoring data is removed before applications are seen by the shortlisting panel. This process allows us to ensure that the shortlisting is done in a fair and consistent manner and all applicants are given the same opportunity to demonstrate their abilities.
