Student Support Adviser (maternity cover), Directorate of People & Student Services

The Higher Education Sector has seen rapid development, and increase, in the demand for student support linked to complex support needs – including cases involving deteriorating Mental Health, the impact of Gender Based Violence and Sexual Harassment (GBV) and other significant personal issues. As a result, there has been a noticeable increase in institutional responsibilities and raised student expectations. The University of Aberdeen Student Advice & Support team is seeking to recruit a fixed-term Student Support Adviser (maternity cover) to ensure that students are supported with a range of individual requirements. This will involve working closely with individual students, as well as with a range of University colleagues. The successful applicant, working with other staff across the University and beyond, will provide a range of information, advice and support to students and applicants on a wide range of matters (including personal, physical and mental health, GBV, accommodation and financial concerns) as a key member of our frontline team.
