Information for Staff

This section of the Careers Service website is for University staff who work with students to develop the skills and knowledge they need to progress on to rewarding and fulfilling careers. It also provides information that can assist staff in signposting students to the Careers Service for appropriate help.

Working with University staff

As part of the Student Services Department, the Careers Service provides a wide range of support for students. Our ‘Students and Graduates’ pages provide more detail about what we do, but increasingly much of what we offer is through working together with academic departments.

For each academic department, the Careers Service provides a link Careers Adviser, who is responsible for liaising with a nominated departmental Careers Liaison Officer (CLOs). A list of Careers Advisers and CLOs is available to download from the right hand menu.

In addition to our work with students, the Careers Service can provide help with a range of other topics.
