City Hub by Lawbore™

As a Marketing and Events Ambassador, students can be involved in many activities including Events, School liaison, and content creation. You will be asked questions about life at City St George’s, your experience of learning here, societies or sports you are involved in and why you think the University is the right fit for you.

What makes a good ambassador? Marketing and Events Ambassadors at City St George’s are expected to demonstrate enthusiasm for the University, be friendly and encourage conversations with prospective students and event guests.

Through its variety of roles, the scheme offers plenty of opportunities to develop valuable transferable skills whilst earning money. Pay is set at £11.44 per hour (plus £1.38 holiday pay). It's very rewarding, flexible and fits around your studies.

Interested? Drop the Marketing Team an email.

As we did last year, the Student Experience Team have teamed up with DWF to run a mentoring scheme. The Mentoring Scheme will provide you with access to a trainee solicitor, who will offer practical support, guidance, and encouragement. There will also be in person and virtual events providing great opportunities to network and find out more about DWF. The scheme is ideally suited for both Undergraduate (2nd and 3rd year) and Postgraduate Law students.

Whilst the scheme is open to all the above, preference will be given to those who are yet to secure a Training Contract as the scheme will focus heavily on applying to Vacation Scheme and Training Contracts.

To apply please complete the form at link below. Any questions to Jane Bradley-Smith.

This project supports our Access and Participation Plan goal to “reduce completion gaps between our Black students and their White peers.” The programme will give you the chance to reflect on how you are seen and how you want to be seen, while also providing strategies and tools to help you identify and use your strengths to move forward in education and employment.

Call for Applications opens on 9th October. See document attached for full details of the programme and benefits on offer.
