About Us

The King's community is dedicated to the service of society.

King's Strategic Vision 2029 sets out our vision for the future, shaped around five priority areas:

educate to inspire and improve; research to inform and innovate; serve to shape and transform; a civic university at the heart of London; and an international community that services the world.

Our ambitious Education Strategy sets out the actions that we must take to transform how we teach, how and where our students learn and how we support them during their time with us.


We pride ourselves on being the trusted partner of choice in sourcing and developing talent for organisations around the world.

King's Careers & Employability seeks to enable and empower students, recent alumni, and researchers from all disciplines and walks of life, to gain the knowledge, skills and experiences they need to effectively navigate their lives and careers after university and achieve lifelong success.

Our Work-based Learning unit brings together our King's Internships and Global Placements teams, supporting students and employers to undertake meaningful work experiences across a range of provision, developing innovative partnerships and opportunities for key student demographics.

About the role


The Work-based Learning Adviser (Accredited) is an integral part of our expanding portfolio of credit-bearing learning opportunities for students across a range of disciplines.

The role holder will be responsible for the facilitation and rollout of group-based, virtual live employer projects, an alternative solution for undergraduate and postgraduate students registered on credit-bearing internship modules.

They will need to source relevant live project briefs from a range of UK and international external organisations, which are in keeping with pre-selected themes, and approved by individual module academic leads as well.


Alongside this, they are responsible for wider oversight of our Accredited Internship Programme, working exclusively with optional credit-bearing internship modules across some of our undergraduate and postgraduate-taught degree programmes.

They will manage relationships with internship module academic leads across three different faculties, as well as work collaboratively with our digital platform hosts, Practera.

The successful post holder will also work collaboratively with other members of the Work-based Learning Unit to develop and deliver digital educational content, drop-ins and workshops for the benefit of all students at King's exploring options for undertaking meaningful work experience.

This is a full-time position, and you will be offered an indefinite contract.
