The Student Ambassador scheme offers a range of opportunities to current students. These applicants will be able to select positions across Professional Services throughout the year on an ad hoc basis.
Our Student Ambassadors can support you to deliver events, projects, and initiatives that you will be running throughout the year. Currently, our bank of ambassadors is working on different campaigns and projects, such as Open Days, recruitment events, school visits, enrolment, and much more.
