Careers Support

The Careers and Employability team are here to help you make the most of your time at university, and to keep you moving forward as you prepare for your graduate career.

Our support is focused on the three themes, helping you to Explore, Connect, and Apply – so that, no matter what stage you’re at in your career thinking, we are with you every step of the way.

Peer-to-peer learning is at the heart of what we do. Our fully trained Career Coaches are students just like you. From our Career Studio in the centre of campus, they provide online and face to face support with all aspects of planning your career journey and applying for jobs. 

Our faculty teams will also bring employability into your courses and onto your modules. We deliver a wide variety of experiential activities and sessions that are embedded in your curriculum and form an integral part of your course.

Introducing the Career Studio

Our Career Studio is a unique employability space for students and graduates to drop into any time to ask questions and co-explore ideas with a Career Coach. 

Whether you’re looking for part-time jobs, need help updating your CV, or want to ask questions about the UK graduate job market, the team are here to help.

Meet the coaches and discover their top tips for getting started on your journey. Drop-in any time from 10am - 5pm, Monday - Friday. No appointment is necessary.

We look forward working with you as you plan and achieve your ambitions.

Online support and tools

As a student, you will also have access to Handshake, our online careers platform, where you can access exclusive employer events, use our interactive careers resources, and search and apply for placements, internships, part-time jobs, and graduate vacancies.
