Want to know what working at the SU is like? Take a look at a typical week behind the scenes at the SU.
We pride ourselves on having a work environment and culture that is fun, willing, developmental, and supportive. Some comments from a few of our recent colleagues who have left us to pursue other fantastic opportunities include:
"I have learned and developed so much as part of this organisation."
‘’[The role] has helped me develop in ways I didn’t even realise I needed to.’’
“.. all staff members care about students and their experience at the University.’’
"There is not a single thing I could have asked for to make my first full time job a better experience, and I'm so grateful for that".
‘’ I enjoyed the leadership I gained from [the role] – first experience of a management role out of University.”
“I liked having to work in the moment rolling with things that happen - you have to adapt to situations in the moment. I really enjoyed that element.”
"I think it's so rare to find a workplace where you genuinely enjoy working with every single person, and that's what I've had here."
"I believe the SU is a place that supports its staff – any SMT (Senior Management Team) member is approachable."

A note for student applications
When applying for jobs at the University or Students' Union, make sure that you read both the job details and the person specification very carefully. When writing your application, you should pay particular care to the personal statement. As well as giving good reasons about why you want the job, it is also very important to write about each of the skills or attributes listed in the person specification, giving concrete examples where you can. Even when you have previously worked for the University or Students' Union you cannot assume that the selector will know about what you have done, so you must present these clearly with each application.
