About the role
What will I be doing?
The role is varied and flexible. It allows you to prioritise your studies and get paid for documenting your university experience along the way.
From creating TikTok's of your 9 'to 5, documenting student milestones for YouTube, to hosting the Student Connect podcast. The role evolves to suit your needs, audience interest and channel trends.
You will have the opportunity to capture things to do near to and on-campus or presenting at corporate events to excite generations of students to come, whilst also having the opportunity to express your interest and grow your skill set.
What skills do I need?
Most importantly, we want you to want to share your story. The experiences you have collected in your time at university will resonate with others and help them in their journey too.
You will have impactful social media accounts, be comfortable in front of the camera and an interest in marketing and communications. It would also be great to see any content you’ve created before – showcasing your confidence with social media and editing apps.
How do I get paid?
You will work closely with the Social Media Manager to produce planned and proactive multimedia content. We want you to stay ahead of the curve and create based on trends, but also look to produce meaningful storytelling that shares what it is to be a student at University of Staffordshire.
Assignments will be listed and agreed, delivered, and then you'll get paid for what you produce.
Occasional weekend or evening working may be requested to attend Open Days and other on-campus events to capture content for social media.
