Our Alumni and Supporter Communications Officers work to strengthen a lifelong connection with our graduates through a programme of targeted communications alumni and supporters, engaging them in the life of the University.

In this role you will focus on assigned communications projects across a range of channels, with a particular focus on increasing the reach and effectiveness of our online platforms and communications. You will need to champion University and campaign objectives and messaging yet also reflect alumni/supporter preferences and interests, informed by research, feedback and rigorous analysis of online communications performance. 

Imagination and creativity aligned with an efficient and planned approach will be vital in this role, as will the ability to build good networks in order to source engaging content from both within the University and externally.
