STUDENTS
AND STAFF
NEED FEEDING
- SO THERE'S A
WHOLE CATERING
DEPARTMENT TO FILL
their work. You'll be working as part
of the team that's leading the research
and may also get the chance to help
take part too. As part of the job, you may
be preparing materials for practical

maintaining (think repair work and
painting), grounds need planting,
clearing and mowing (ever fancied
being Head Gardener?), sports pitches
need maintaining, while students and
staff need feeding, so there's a whole
catering department to fill.

marketing (which includes making
students want to come to your
establishment and promoting what it
is you have to offer future students)
and events management, such as

Christmas parties.

brand identity.
