Middlesex University marries radical creativity with practice-oriented education, on a beautiful open campus right in the heart of North London. Our second campus, at Stone X stadium, is just a 5 minute bus ride away. We enjoy a strong relationship with the University, who understand the unique role the SU has to play in their vision - to transform students’ outcomes to change their lives.
Our community is a melting pot of the local and the global, with students encouraged by the University’s industry focus, excellent teaching standards and fantastic location.
For September 2024, we have just established a students’ union space in MDX House, the home of student life on campus. Our Head of Engagement and Influence will lead the charge to harness mass engagement from our students in extra and intracurricular opportunities so that they can develop the skills, networks and communities to influence their education and shape their futures.
Leading a directorate of 9 full time staff, and supporting three full time student officers as well as 100s of student leaders, you will help staff and students develop communities and campaigns approaches that ensure students are shaping their education, their communities and their lives. The successful candidate will have excellent coaching and mentoring skills and be able to put them to use to develop staff and our full time officers, growing and developing their teams to reach new heights. You will have the skills to build systems, processes and projects to ensure that students have excellent support and opportunities, with the ability to lead the team to achieve our vision for Engagement and Influence.
We are looking for someone who will go the extra mile for students, who is passionate and committed to the impact MDXSU can have on our students’ futures. You’ll be a great communicator, a team player and relish the opportunity to work directly with students every day.
Due to our new Progression Framework, the successful postholder will get the opportunity to develop significantly throughout their time with MDXSU. You will be supported to take on challenging projects and opportunities that directly contribute to the skills you need for the rest of your career, including access to a free MBA or equivalent masters’ level qualification with paid study time. Through quarterly reviews, and a structured progression plan, the most successful candidates could move from the entry point of the band to the top of the pay scale in as little as 18 months.
Like all SU staff, the Head of Engagement and Influence also shares responsibility for supporting the work of our elected student officers and delivering against key projects, such as welcome week activity, SU elections and feeding into the wider work of the SU and the university.
Both the Students’ Union and the University are going through a period of ambitious change, making MDXSU an exciting place to work, with a fun and sociable staff team. This role is ideal for someone who is ambitious and interested in the opportunity to experiment and lead new practice. You could be looking for your first senior management role in students’ unions after a successful period in people and project management, or you might be a senior leader in a smaller organisation looking to grow your experience. We also actively welcome applications from people looking to move into students’ unions from aligned sectors, such as youth work and community development.
Benefits:
- A generous leave package including 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- An additional two weeks’ closure during Christmas and New Year
