Another way to earn some useful cash is by joining our Student Ambassador Scheme. We know from experience that students can help others to find out more about Higher Education, life as a student and about Staffordshire University.

Student Ambassadors help out at various recruitment events. Plus, the scheme also gives you the opportunity to further develop your social, organisational, problem solving, time management and communication skills in a practical way.

Just a few benefits of becoming a Student Ambassador:

• Flexible hours to fit in with your study

• Presentation skills training
• Build up your personal and professional references
• Learn more about the University – and get more involved
• Gain practical work experience
