Student Wellbeing Advisor - London Moorgate

The University of Law (ULaw) is one of the world's largest law schools. With an impressive history dating back to 1876, we employ over 1,000 staff and have over 14,000 students, along with an alumni network in excess of 100,000. In 2016, we opened our leading Business School, further enhancing our reputation as a full service legal, business and educational training specialist, operating from campuses throughout the UK, Berlin and Hong Kong and an Online campus.

What really sets us apart from other universities is the guiding principle that future lawyers and business leaders should learn in a realistic, professional and contemporary context, with plenty of practical interactive engagement. That's why we keep our contact hours high and our teaching groups small.

We are seeking a Student Wellbeing Advisor for our London Bloomsbury campus to join our Wellbeing Team. You will often be the first point of contact for students with wellbeing concerns - including mental health, academic worries, personal and financial issues. You will provide advice, support and guidance to students, providing a triage and referral service to specialist advice teams within the University or to external agencies where appropriate, handle a caseload of student wellbeing cases.

The ideal candidate will have experience gained in an advice or wellbeing setting and will have managed a varied and complex caseload. In-depth knowledge and understanding of the wellbeing issues that can affect students will be an advantage.

This is a hybrid role, with the expectation that the successful candidate will be based at our London campuses at least three days per week, with the rest of the week working from home.

We offer an excellent range of competitive benefits including a generous annual leave allowance, private medical scheme, contributory pension scheme, life assurance, training and qualifications, and travel loans

For an informal discussion about the role please contact Josie Carroll at Josie.Carroll@law.ac.uk

No agencies please.

Some posts within the University are subject to a DBS check - you will be notified of this during the application process.

What do we offer?

We offer an inclusive and supportive work environment and are committed to developing our staff through a variety of means including educational sponsorship, discounted course fees and a range of in-house training. We also offer a generous annual leave allowance and private medical insurance.

Our approach

Equity and Inclusion is central to everything we do. We are actively committed to promoting and participating in good practice in the way we attract and retain staff, as we appreciate the value and benefits of a truly diverse workforce. Aligned to this is the opportunity to join one of our three peer staff networks for Disabled staff, LGBTQ+ staff and staff from an underrepresented race, ethnicity and/or cultural heritage.

We celebrate difference and recognise the benefits that this brings to our inclusive culture, including age, disability, gender identity and expression, religion, race, sex, sexual orientation and socio economic background. The University is committed to ensuring our workforce is reflective of our diverse student population and wider society; we are striving to increase the representation of Black, Asian and minority ethnic backgrounds across all roles and at all levels. All appointments will be made on merit.
