Porter

This role is eligible for the Campus Services New Starter Bonus* (£1,000) and Campus Services Refer a Friend bonus. 

About us

The Campus Services department was created in August 2022 by combining all the facilities teams across the University into one department to support our University strategy, where strong campus services are essential to underpin excellence in education, research and experience for students, staff, visitors and commercial customers alike. We house over 5000 students throughout the academic year and during the summer month’s, external companies use our accommodation services for conferences, summer camps and away days.

Since last August we have continued to develop the services we provide in response to the changing needs of the University. 

About the role

As a Porter you’ll have a key role in helping students transition from living at home to fully independent living and ensuring all our accommodation users have the best possible experience when staying with us.

Responsibilities include:

• Removing waste and recycling from accommodation areas
• Restocking essential customer supplies in accommodation areas
• Collecting and sorting linen and bedding
• Reporting maintenance issues
• Ensuring health and safety guidance is followed
• Acting as the face of the department, engaging with students and visitors
