sparqs’ jobs board exists to create a platform for student engagement roles in Scotland and beyond, bringing together recruiters and the many people interested in careers in the field of student engagement.
Information for recruiters
We welcome additions to the jobs board of vacancies that wholly or substantially relate to the work of student engagement in shaping learning, including roles in institutions, students’ associations and agencies here in Scotland. If we spot relevant jobs we'll add them here! We are also pleased to receive submissions of vacancies beyond Scotland where you are seeking to tap into a Scottish audience. Our jobs board and recent additions are regularly promoted on our social media and in our news articles. If you wish to advertise a role that is not related to engagement in shaping learning, then you might wish to consider other portals such as www.jobs.ac.uk, NUS’s Careers in Students’ Unions site or CDN’s jobs listings for colleges in Scotland.
To submit your vacancy, simply email Ali McDade, Communications Co-ordinator, with a link to your vacancy’s page - ali.mcdade@sparqs.ac.uk. There is no charge for this.
Information for prospective applicants
We add vacancies as and when we receive them, so please keep visiting this page, and subscribe to our news articles and follow us on social media where we will announce updates. See our Contact us webpage for social media details.
If you are interested in any of these roles and wish to discuss them further, please do not contact sparqs about them (unless it's a sparqs job!). Instead click the links below to the relevant recruitment pages and look for contact details in the relevant information packs.
