Description

Loughborough University is highly regarded for the quality of student services and support it provides for students and graduates.

Based within the University's Careers Network, our Student Success Projects Officer will play a key role in the
Student Success Academy:
a team dedicated to wrap-around support for students at each stage of the student lifecycle.

In particular, young people from underrepresented and minority ethnic backgrounds face inequalities in education, and in access to work opportunities, which can define their life chances.

The Student Success Academy is designed to address this problem, tackling barriers and challenges which persist throughout the student lifecycle - before Loughborough, at Loughborough, and after graduation.

As an integral part of the Student Success Academy, the Student Success Projects Officer will work alongside our Coordinator and other colleagues within the team to bring together a range of skills development opportunities, activities, and events to deliver benefits for Loughborough students, including the expansion of our exclusive Personal Best scheme.

They will support the organisation and delivery of our Get Ahead Together peer mentoring scheme for first year students transitioning into university, by co-designing and delivering sessions on topics from Money Management to Handling Challenges.

We are looking for an organised, creative and innovative individual with a passion and interest in Equity, Diversity and Inclusion to join our team at an exciting period of growth and development.

They will continue to develop and build on the success of our existing programmes and work in collaboration with colleagues in Schools and across Professional Services to provide mentoring and skills development opportunities for our students and graduates, particularly those from underrepresented and minority groups.
