Become a Student Ambassador

As a Student Ambassador you could be asked to work at a number of on-campus events such as Open Days, Applicant and Interview Days, and Information Fairs.

You will also be given the opportunity to travel, representing the University at off-campus events such as UCAS and HE Fairs, as well as outreach activities with schools and colleges. 

Within these events you can work in a variety of roles from meeting and greeting visitors and managing car parking, to providing campus and accommodation tours. You may also be asked to deliver a talk about your subject or your personal experience of student life.

Being a Student Ambassador gives you the opportunity to earn money in a role that fits flexibly around your studies. You will be paid a competitive hourly rate: £8.27 per hour (for students under 25) and £8.77 per hour (for students aged 25 and over).

Working in various roles you will gain valuable experience which will help to build your confidence, and develop your interpersonal, leadership and team-working skills. 

We will provide you with training to develop your communication and presentation skills, and will work with you to identify how the experience and skills that you have gained as a Student Ambassador, can be applied to your CV and future job applications.

We welcome applications from all current students, and are looking for representatives from all courses and campuses.

We are specifically looking for students who:

• are proud and passionate about representing the University of South Wales
  
• are pro-active, confident, enthusiastic and engaging
• have a ‘happy to help’ attitude
• are professional, well organised and reliable
• have excellent team working and communication skills

We will be recruiting for Student Ambassadors in the New Year. Please keep checking the website for further information.
