This is an exciting chance to be part of a progressive and cutting-edge University in a beautiful location, where you can really make a difference. The University of Plymouth is a great place to work, with excellent opportunities for career development and progression for staff, as well as striving to put students at the heart of everything we do. Our Student Services department provides support, advice and guidance to our student population to enable them to flourish and succeed during their time at University and beyond. Our services include mental health and wellbeing services, support for those with a health condition, impairment or disability, faith and spiritual support, bursaries and hardship funds, enhancing the international student experience and student disciplinary and conduct matters. All these services are easily accessible to our students via our Student Hub. The role sits within the Student Hub to deliver customer-focussed, streamlined access to student support, delivering a service that allows students to receive advice on a range of enquiries in one place, which is incredibly easy to find, both online and on campus, and to receive this advice when they need it. Providing a first-stop shop for student enquiries, the Student Services Hub Advisors provide a single gateway for students to access information, advice and support on a wide range of student life, wellbeing and learning issues. This happens in-person, online and over the phone, covering a broad range of topics.
