    Summary of the role

    The Student Employability and Development Team within Student Employability and Academic Success (SEAS) at the University of Exeter is recruiting an Employability and Placement Adviser in their Placements Team supporting undergraduate and post graduate work placement students across a number of credit-bearing placement modules and yearlong placement programmes.

    Due to the ever-increasing need for students to have the skills and experience to secure a graduate role post-university, work placements have become more popular with students. Work placements not only improve a student’s ability to secure a graduate role (many are offered graduate roles within the organisation where they undertook their placement), but it also can improve their academic outcomes. The placements team are committed to offering a range of support to enable students to secure work placements as part of credit-bearing modules/programmes and continually looks for new ways to engage and offer the help students want/need.

    This role is fundamental in promoting the benefits of work placements to both prospective and current students and supporting students to find, compete for and secure jobs. It includes a wide portfolio of activity such as lectures, workshops, 1 to 1s, online material development across a number of different platforms, marketing, event management, email support etc. as well as opportunities to be part of project groups.

    The Placement Team is committed to personal development and support team members to develop their knowledge and experience in work placements and the wider HE careers sector.

    We are looking for an individual who is passionate about supporting students to improve their employability skills and knowledge. The job description for the role outlines the skills/experience criteria we are looking for candidates to possess; we want you to provide clear evidence/examples of when you have used those skills/gained experience in your work life or outside work. Please also outline why you want the role and are passionate about supporting student success.
