Liverpool Guild of Students is a student-led charity and every student at the University of Liverpool is a member.

The successful applicant will play a key role in this work, ensuring that students’ views are at the heart of everything the university does.
The postholder will manage Student Voice Coordinators and ensure high-quality support and guidance to students involved in representation structures. The Student Voice Manager will support and promote the student voice within a faculty at the University of Liverpool alongside coordinating the course representative system and providing guidance in matters relating to education and quality. The postholder will develop knowledge and awareness of key issues within Higher Education and use this to inform and support the work of the Guild.
The successful applicant will have an excellent opportunity to progress in this role and actively contribute to the overall growth of the Membership Services Department.
We encourage applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented within the Guild.
The Guaranteed Interview Scheme for Ethnically Diverse Candidates at Liverpool Guild of Students is committed to the principles of equality of opportunity. We annually review racial diversity within our workforce and it is a key priority for us to improve racial and ethnic diversity amongst our workforce. As such, we particularly welcome applications from ethnically diverse candidates and have introduced a guaranteed interview scheme. We recognise that applicants from ethnically diverse backgrounds may have experienced additional barriers when applying for new roles.
Therefore, we are taking positive action to address under-representation within our organisation. If you meet the minimum criteria (at least 80% of the 'essential' criteria in the person specification) and are from an ethnically diverse background, you'll be guaranteed an interview. If you are an ethnically diverse applicant and would like to be considered under our guaranteed interview scheme, you must indicate this by selecting the relevant box on the Equality and Diversity Monitoring Form. If you do not select this box, your application will be considered alongside all other applications. It is important to note that this scheme only guarantees an interview for ethnically diverse applicants who meet the minimum criteria. The selection decision at interview will be based on the most suitable candidate, regardless of background or protected characteristic.
