Exciting job opportunity for current University of Brighton students

This role is ongoing and causal, where you apply for the shifts that interest you and fit around your other commitments.   

As an international student your university experience could be the reason someone takes the next steps to joining us here at Brighton. The university understands the value of student-led communication, which is why we want to encourage you to apply and share your experience of studying here and inspire others in a similar position to you.
