Representing the University at careers fairs, exhibitions and recruitment events regionally and across the UK, you'll provide tailored advice and guidance to a wide range of audiences.

A key part of the role will be developing and strengthening relationships with schools and colleges beyond the North West, working with key contacts to create impactful programmes of activity that raise awareness of Edge Hill University and encourage applications.

This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys a varied role, travel and building meaningful partnerships. This is a role where you can see the direct impact of your work on the University's success. You'll benefit from comprehensive training, ongoing professional development opportunities and clear progression pathways within the team and wider department.

A flexible approach is essential, as you'll regularly travel across the North West and further afield, with occasional evening and weekend work.

Most importantly, you'll be motivated by the opportunity to make a real difference to students' futures, helping them navigate their higher education choices while acting as an ambassador for Edge Hill University.
