Students available for summer work through the University Job Shop

(18 May 2004)

There are currently 1744 students registered with the University Job Shop. As soon as their exams are over they will be looking for paid work to fill their time until the end of term and beyond.

From experience, we know that we will have undergraduate and Masters students available to work throughout the summer. This is because they start to pay rent from July 1st for the next academic year.

If you need student help for staff holiday cover, additional conference work or for next academic year, start advertising with us as soon as possible, so that students can apply well before the end of term.

If you have a task that needs to be completed but you don't have enough hours to get it done why not employ a student? You can hire a student to complete a one off task or on a longer term basis to suit your needs.

Jobs for which we have recently recruited, or are currently recruiting students:

Temporary, Full Time Support Administrator, 3 months Academic Office.

General temporary office assistants: for photocopying, envelope stuffing. Paper collation and filing for various departments.
Part time bar assistant, the Graham Sports Centre also holiday bar staff for conferences.
