Description
Who we are - Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different.

You’ll be responsible for developing student sports clubs within a creative university, helping support clubs run events, training and campaigns. You will work closely with our elected Student Community Officer to support relevant student groups and supporting the elected Sports Executive Committee to oversee the running of Sports Clubs at Arts SU. You will act as the first point of contact for sport club leaders and will drive improvement of club activities, as well as administrating fixtures, facilities and a range of administrative processes.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the running of Arts SU’s growing Elite Athlete programme and supporting our student athletes. You will have the opportunity to work alongside talented student staff, supporting their development too, and to work closely with other members of the Community team while knowledge sharing with other unions and universities.
Who we are looking for?:
This role is ideal for anyone who has hands-on experience of working with young people or students, within community development projects, or with volunteers in an arts organisation or within the education sector. You should have an enthusiastic and a high energy approach to your work with excellent organisation and communication skills.
