Employer Engagement Consultant

Here at the University of Bolton, we are proud to put our students and their needs first - it’s what we’re all about. We know what it takes to provide a university experience that students love and that prepares them for employment; that’s why we’ve been ranked 1st in the North West for Student Satisfaction for the past 4 years by The Complete University Guide and are now 5^th in the UK for Teaching Quality (Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022).

 To support our mission, we are now seeking to appoint an Employer Engagement Consultant within our Jobs for Students team.   

 If you join our motivated team, you will have the opportunity to make a real difference preparing our students for the challenging world of work.  You will be involved in liaising with employers and generating new industry contacts, supporting the work of our Industry Advisory Boards and creating new work-based learning opportunities for our students and graduates.

 Naturally, we’re keen to hear from you if you are already working in education and are looking for the next step in your career.  Equally, we would welcome applications from those who have relevant transferable skills gained outside the education sector. Most importantly, you will be a strong team player who is absolutely committed to the success of our students.   

Further information can be found in the Job Description Person Specification.  We’re also happy to chat to interested candidates about the opportunities available and what it is like working at the University.  Informal enquiries regarding this role should be made to the Director, Julie Bateman via email in the first instance j.bateman@bolton.ac.uk

Applicants must apply with a Covering Letter and a CV. 

 *Although this is a full-time role, we would welcome applications from candidates interested in part-time hours/job-share.
