Job description

Please Note: We only accept applications through our application form/site. We are unable to accept CV or email applications through external sites.

Are you someone who thrives on helping others, solving problems, and making a tangible difference in people’s lives? We’re looking for a committed and empathetic Student Advisor (Student Finance) to join the Advice Service at the University of Manchester Students’ Union (UMSU). This is a full-time, fixed-term role for 12 months, with the possibility of extension subject to funding and business needs.

As a Student Advisor (Student Finance), you'll provide free, independent and confidential advice to students at the University of Manchester. You’ll be a generalist Student Advisor while also while also taking the lead on student finance and money advice. You'll become our team's specialist in this area, helping students understand their funding options, access financial support and navigate financial challenges. As a generalist advisor you’ll be providing advice and guidance across all areas of the Advice Service, including academic issues and regulations, University disciplinary procedures, housing and wider student life matters.

With the rising cost of living and increasing complexity of student funding, you’ll play a key role in helping students access the financial support they need and empowering them to make informed decisions. We’re looking for someone who can support students professionally, sensitively and with empathy, ensuring they feel heard, informed and confident about their next steps.

You’ll enjoy this role if you have an interest in money advice and financial wellbeing, alongside a curiosity about the law and an enthusiasm for understanding regulations, policies and procedures. Excellent communication skills are essential, together with the ability to respond compassionately to students experiencing distress or crisis while providing practical advice and support.

Alongside one to one advice, the Advice Service delivers supported self-help resources, preventative campaigns and outreach activities to help students access information before problems escalate. If you enjoy engaging with people, you’ll have opportunities to contribute to website and social media content, deliver presentations and workshops, attend promotional events and collaborate with colleagues and stakeholders across the University community.

You’ll be part of a small, supportive and dedicated team, working in a busy and varied environment where student wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do. We’ll support your development through ongoing training and continuing professional development, helping you build expertise across all areas of our advice service while developing specialist knowledge in student finance. You’ll also benefit from regular opportunities for reflection and wellbeing support, including access to external restorative supervision.

Experience of providing student finance or money advice is desirable. However, we also welcome applications from candidates with experience in advice, welfare, support work, professional student services or other settings who can demonstrate transferable skills, a willingness to learn and a genuine passion for supporting students.

At UMSU, you’ll be part of a supportive, inclusive and values-driven organisation that champions student empowerment. We offer a collaborative team culture, opportunities for professional development and the chance to make a meaningful and lasting difference to students’ lives every day.

If this sounds like the opportunity you’ve been looking for, we’d love to hear from you.
