Help students create change at Leeds.

We're looking for two Student Voice & Organising Assistants to join Leeds University Union for the 2026/27 academic year. If you're organised, proactive and passionate about helping students make a difference, this could be the perfect role for you.

As part of our Student Voice & Organising Team, you'll support the student leaders, projects and democratic activities that help shape life at Leeds. From supporting elected Student Executives and our new Engagement Leaders, to helping deliver LeadLUU elections, Better Forums and the Make It Better platform, you'll play a key role in ensuring students have genuine opportunities to influence their university experience.

What we're looking for:

We’re looking for students at the University of Leeds who care about representation and student leadership. We're looking for people who can communicate confidently with a wide range of people, provide excellent support and service, manage competing priorities and work collaboratively within a team. 

Previous experience in customer service, administration or student leadership is helpful but not essential. 

Join us and help thousands of students have their voices heard, develop as leaders and create positive change across the University and beyond.

What you get in return

The benefits you can enjoy include generous holiday allowance as well as extra Union closed days, extensive opportunities for learning and further development, holiday buy back options, NUS TOTUM Card, onsite venue staff discounts, discounted travel card, and discounted gym membership.
