This position is based within the University’s Student Advice Service and is based at our College sites or at the Student Centre. In this varied and challenging role, you will be providing information, advice and guidance to students across the University.

As part of your day-to-day work, you can expect to focus particularly on student financial and immigration advice. You will help students with relevant procedures; liaise with other organisations, such as the Student Loans Company and the Home Office; and make referrals on to other specialist teams in the University or in external organisations.

This is an opportunity to play a vital role at the University of the Arts London, specializing in the advice areas of student finance and immigration; supporting and advising students on other important issues, and thereby enriching the student experience.

Where your knowledge falls short you must be able to identify the right people, agencies and organisations that students need.
