About the Role

We are looking for a brilliant creative ready to join the BSU Communications and Brand Development team. You'll support us with videography, photography, occasional graphic design and copywriting for our social media and other internal and external communications channels.

The External Affairs Unit functions like a small agency within the University, and we have multiple internal clients. This role will provide an opportunity to work on a range of projects with different team leaders, maybe even leading one when you're ready.

(This is an 18 Month Full Time Fixed Term Role)

About You

We do not expect you to be expert in all the skills outlined in this role. You may be confident in some areas and have limited or no experience in others. We are looking for a willing and enthusiastic all-rounder who brings their current skills and a passion to grow and broaden those that may not be as strong right now.
