In this role, you will support students to access high-quality placements, work-based learning and industry engagement, helping them develop the skills, confidence and insight they need to succeed.
You will work with the Placements and Employability Manager, academic colleagues and industry partners to coordinate student enquiries, manage placement approvals, maintain digital resources and support events, workshops, and guest lectures. You will help ensure placements are inclusive, relevant and compliant, while contributing to the Hub’s strategic development and improving graduate outcomes.

You are highly organised, able to manage multiple priorities and comfortable using digital platforms, databases and Microsoft Office tools. You enjoy building positive relationships with employers and external partners and can support industry engagement activities effectively.
Above all, you are committed to inclusive, student-focused practice. You bring professionalism, empathy and a proactive approach to supporting students’ personal and professional development, ensuring they have the guidance and opportunities to thrive in the creative industries.
Join us and help shape the Employability Hub’s impact—supporting LCC students to gain meaningful experience, connect with industry and take confident steps into their future careers.
