About the LSE Students’ Union
LSE Students' Union (LSESU) is a £5.6m not-for-profit organisation for LSE students. We've been part of the LSE community since 1897, and all LSE students automatically become LSESU members when they enrol.
We exist to:
- Support students holistically in terms of their academic and student experience, serving as an independent source of advice and advocacy.
- Help students shape and lead their own academic and student experience by providing opportunities that foster connection and engagement, building their skills and future careers.
- Use our influence to forge and create change in the interests of students within the institution, the community, and wider society, by empowering the students themselves.
We are emerging from a change programme which has seen us significantly enhance our culture, governance, and partnerships. We are proud to have positive morale internally, with 93% of staff feeling they are trusted and well respected at work. We have enhanced our Trustee board and enjoy a great level of support and engagement from Trustees.
Our new approach to building partnerships with LSE is working exceptionally well, including investing in dedicated partnerships management roles within our staff structure. We are also excited to be opening a newly refurbished commercial offer in the very near future.
About the role
We have set an ambitious strategy for 2030, which our team is enthusiastic about. Our vision is to be a union today, empowering every student to shape tomorrow. This is a journey about us transforming the educational journey and student experience of our members, setting a global standard for a world-class students’ union. Our plan has three core pillars focused on partnerships, advancing student voices, and creating a lifelong sense of identity.
We are seeking a new Chief Executive to drive this strategy and deliver a world-class students’ union.
Who we are looking for
Our ideal candidate brings proven senior leadership experience from a high-profile organisation, with expertise in managing complex situations and challenges, including those of a politically complex nature. You will have exceptional strategic vision and a successful track record in building institutional partnerships.
Your track record will show that you have led transformational change and provided empowering, inspiring leadership to your teams to achieve organisational goals.
Staff well-being, professional development, and having an inclusive culture where teams feel valued and motivated are important to us. Our new CEO will be responsible to the Trustee Board and the Sabbatical Officers, so we need a leader who is authentic, communicative, and committed to ethical leadership and decision-making.
We care deeply about the well-being of our team, but the nature of our work can mean that we need to respond rapidly to complex, emotional, and political challenges at a moment’s notice. Our leader will need the ability to remain calm and resilient under pressure and adapt to change and challenges as needed.
We welcome all candidates with the leadership experience required to consider this post, including those who might be considering working within a Students’ Union for the first time. You will be supported by an exceptional team that is excited to work with a new CEO.

South Bank Students Union is a non-for-profit organisation, which champions social mobility through education and has a vision to disrupt the cycle of inequality in higher education.
We are looking for a Student Voice Coordinator to join our new team as we embark on a five-year strategy to transform the way we engage and support students to help them reach their full potential.
Nowhere is inequality in our education system more recognisable than in higher education, where those from the most privileged backgrounds still have the most equity and most chances to achieve and succeed.
South Bank students have high expectations and ambitions for themselves but lead complex lives where they are faced with the pressures of trying to balance their studies with work and juggling their lives at home. In fact, many don't identify primarily as students, but instead as carers, nurses, engineers, parents, designers, workers, entrepreneurs, apprentices, last chance learners and Londoners.
At South Bank Students' Union we believe that a student's background and life circumstances should not put them at an educational disadvantage, and all students deserve a high-quality University experience and the chance to graduate equipped with the tools to succeed in life - this role is at the heart of this work.
Alongside our current Student Voice Coordinator, the person in this role will be responsible for delivering the Union’s key Student Voice programmes which include: our course rep scheme; student issues tracking; focus groups and officer insight campaigns. They will also provide support for student leaders. This includes supporting the effective election, induction and ongoing development of the Union’s President, Lead Representatives and democratic processes.
We are looking for someone who can truly understand the lived experiences of those who have faced societal barriers to participation, and who is motivated by delivering work which aims to challenge and remove these norms.
Commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion
SBSU’s simple vision of disrupting inequality is the heartbeat of the organisation and it is this which steers its decisions, practice, and priorities. It unifies our services, and it drives our staff to remove societal barriers so that all people can achieve their full potential.
SBSU believes that in order to truly disrupt inequality for its members, it must also strive to do this for its workforce – in short, staff must experience it in order to deliver it!
Our Union benefits enormously from having a team of staff with a range of diverse lived experiences. We understand that some life circumstances might be more complex, and that some will have had to overcome more barriers. We value the unique perspectives that are formed by an individual’s background and believe that ‘bringing your whole self to work’ is essential for informed decision making and collaboration and paves the way for high performance so we welcome applications from all, especially if your background and circumstances are traditionally under-represented in the workplace.
