Activities of Gold Award Representatives will include promoting to and supporting peers, helping with social events, providing contact time, and building the Gold Award community.

Representatives will be part of an enthusiastic team strongly committed to student development and a key point of contact for Gold Award students in their departments.

In terms of the benefits of volunteering for the post, this is an excellent opportunity for Representatives to develop a wide range of skills and attributes. In particular, they will use and develop communication skills including public speaking and presentation delivery.

Additionally, experience in self-direction and time management, responding to student emails and data management will be gained.

This is a developmental role which will give Representatives an insight into working alongside a busy Careers Service.
