Here at the University of Nottingham Students’ Union, we are a connected student community. A brilliant, diverse, ambitious community, 38,000 strong. We are proudly independent from the university and right at the heart of student life. We’re a diverse community from first-year undergraduates to research students, elected student Executive and staff, to volunteers, pioneers, and so much more. Together, we are getting involved, making change, and supporting each other, making student life at the University of Nottingham the very best it can be.

We are one of the largest Students’ Union in the country, connecting 38,000 student members to share, support and inspire each other while at University. As a registered charity we act as the recognised representative body of all students at the University, and every student is automatically a member free of charge. We provide a range of activities, events, campaigning, commercial and professional services that benefit and support students to get involved, find support, and make change.

Our mission is to make student life at the University of Nottingham the best it can be. We support students to share and voice their views on academic life and the wider University experience and have strong student leadership in our elected student representatives. We provide an excellent Advice service to help students with academic, housing, financial issues and welfare support. There is a diverse range of social, cultural, sporting and recreational activities and many opportunities for personal development. We work with and support events and activities through the student committees of over 400 societies, 75 sports clubs, media groups and other student communities and we facilitate many student volunteers to take part in community projects. Through our trading company, UNU Services Limited, we run two SPAR shops, a bar, coffee shop, clothing shop and a print shop. Our annual financial turnover, for the charity and trading company combined is in excess of £11m annually.

As a charity the Students’ Union has a Board of Trustees which is responsible for the governance, management, strategy and budget of the Students’ Union. The Trustees currently consist of our Full Time elected Student Officers and 4 appointed Lay Trustees, along with 4 appointed Student Trustees. The daily work of the Students’ Union is directed by elected Student Officers, with advice and support from staff. The Officer team is made of 9 part-time Officers and 8 full-time sabbatical Officers. Each Officer has their own portfolio of individual responsibilities as well as holding the shared responsibility for creating changes which will improve the lives of students at the University.

The Students' Union employs over two hundred and fifty staff in its Commercial, Membership and Central Services. Around half of our staff are students who balance work with their studies and social lives. Other staff work full-time, some are part-time, and some are required only during term-time and work for just part of the year. If you like working in a vibrant and fast changing environment with passionate students excited about their experience, you will enjoy working for the University of Nottingham Students' Union.

When you come to work @UoNSU you bring your skills, experience, talent, commitment and a desire to do a great job. Our Students’ Union prides itself on being inclusive, working collaboratively and empowering individuals to be the best they can. In return we want to be an employer where every member of the staff team feels valued, trusted, inspired, and able to grow and to have fun.

We welcome people from different cultures, ethnicities and beliefs – this very diversity is vital to our success, it is fundamental to our values and enriches life on campus. We value diversity, promote equity and challenge discrimination. We are on a journey to increase the diversity of our staff team and we would like to encourage applications from disabled, LGBT+ and Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds to better reflect the diverse community we serve.
