You will participate in recruitment activities, take on small administrative roles within the department, contribute to the management of a newly furbished Psycholinguistics Lab, and deliver pastoral care to students as academic advisor.

What you will get in return:

  • Fantastic market leading Pension scheme
  • Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme
  • Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays
  • Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
  • Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers
