About Loughborough Students' Union

We provide a wide range of services, events, and opportunities to enhance the student experience. Our mission is to empower and represent students, offering them the best possible university experience.

About the role

The Community Engagement Project Officers will support the delivery of student led activity and strategic projects across our diverse communities, working as a cohesive, collaborative team. With a focus on outreach and building visibility across communities, these 4 post holders will work alongside our permanent staff team and Executive Officers to increase and sustain student engagement in LSU activities. A key aspect of the role will be helping to build connections between the Executive Officer team and their student communities through the provision of events and activities.

This role is offered as a 1-year paid internship and is open to current Loughborough University students or those who have graduated from Loughborough University within the past 2 years. We believe that this role provides a fantastic springboard into Students’ Unions/Higher Education for graduates, however, we would also be open to this role being undertaken as a placement year where a candidate has previous relevant experience and the role aligns with future career goals.
