Advertising to students
Our students can bring a wealth of knowledge, experience and skills to positions at the university. Many of them have been employed here previously and have a thorough understanding of our organisation and policies.
We have found that our student employees are competent, reliable, courteous and efficient. They bring fresh enthusiasm to the workplace. We look forwarding to employing students again in the future. - Anne, professional staff member.
