This is a varied, people-focused role where no two days are the same. From coordinating Course Representative elections and delivering training to facilitating University Feedback Forums and supporting student-led campaigns, you'll be at the heart of our democratic processes.

You'll work closely with Volunteer Student Leads, Course Representatives, and elected Officers, equipping them with the skills, confidence, and resources to represent their peers effectively. You'll also build strong relationships with academic staff and University senior leaders, acting as a bridge between students and the institution.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Supporting the planning and delivery of Student Assemblies, committee meetings, and University Feedback Forums
  • Producing reports, briefing notes, and "You Said, We Did" summaries that demonstrate student impact
  • Maintaining accurate records, databases, and online resources including Rep Hub webpages
  • Contributing to large-scale events such as Welcome Week and cross-campus team activities
  • Acting as a welcoming first point of contact for students, providing a high standard of support and customer service

About You

You're a confident communicator who thrives on building relationships with a wide range of people. You're highly organised, able to manage multiple priorities, and passionate about student empowerment and democratic participation. Whether you're facilitating a training session, writing a campaign post, or supporting a student through the election process, you bring energy, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to making a difference.

Why Join Us?


This is a role with real scope. At Union, we're ambitious and dedicated to putting students first. As we grow our student voice provision on campus in Peterborough, you'll have a genuine opportunity to shape what student representation and leadership looks like on campus.
