Description
This is a varied, hands-on role where you'll work closely with student leaders, empowering and coaching them to run high-quality activity, manage risk, build confidence and create opportunities that help more students get involved, feel part of a community and thrive at university. Working with autonomy within agreed JMSU policies, procedures and budgets, you'll provide advice, professional judgement and leadership to student group leaders and committees. You'll help them deliver exciting and meaningful student-led activity while meeting health and safety, financial, safeguarding and governance expectations. You'll also play an important role in supporting higher-risk activity and acting as an escalation point where student groups need additional guidance or support. We're looking for someone with experience supporting students, volunteers or community groups, who can combine strong organisation and attention to detail with sound judgement, a positive coaching style and a developmental approach. You'll be confident building relationships with a range of stakeholders, working within policies and procedures, handling records and financial processes, and widening participation by removing barriers so more students can Belong, Be Heard and Thrive.
