We are the representative body for University College London’s (UCL) students, one of the most diverse student communities in the world. We are one of the largest student-led organisations in the UK and a charity with over 48,000 members. We provide opportunities for 300 staff and have an annual turnover of more than £12m.
It's an exciting time our growing organisation as the delivery partner for UCL’s new Student Life Strategy. In 2023 we received a multi-million-pound investment to enhance student life at UCL. The financial backing from our parent university is recognition of the transformative effect that extra and co-curricular experiences have on students at UCL – helping them develop skills, build networks, reduce loneliness and isolation, grow in confidence, and enjoy their time here.
To help us achieve these ambitious goals we are looking for a new Community Engagement Coordinator.
We are seeking someone to increase mutual understanding between small and agile non-profit organisations and ourselves, and therefore increased opportunities to work together, so that the best possible social impact can be generated through joyful and meaningful student opportunities. The successful candidate will therefore work with local non-profit organisations to understand and build their capacity to engage with our department and students, while also working with colleagues across our department and wider Student Experience Directorate to create student opportunities. They will utilise excellent co-production methods to facilitate equitable engagement, for grassroots voluntary sector groups that meet the needs and interests of both the voluntary sector and our student community.
The role is a full time and permanent contract. This role is also a hybrid working role, where 40% of the role will be on campus based.
Have you got experience of implementing excellent co-creation and co-production methods to enable successful partnerships and outcomes? Have you got experience of utilising best practice in community engagement and building successful relationships with a range of diverse communities? If the answer is yes, then we want to hear from you.
Our ideal candidate will provide excellent case management and support to elevate engagement for our network of 20 “hatchery” grassroots community organisations across Camden and East London. The right candidate will build relationships with a broad range of voluntary sector organisations (infrastructure organisations, charities, community groups and grass roots communities) and statutory partners. The successful role holder will also attend local voluntary and community sector events as a representative of the wider Student Social Impact team to continue to grow our network, particularly within East London.
An outstanding experience for all UCL students and to be one of the best students’ unions in the UK and the world.
