I fell in love with Students’ Union’s during my undergrad. Since then, I’ve developed my career in the sector and have experience of both student-focused and operational roles. Most recently the Head of Operations at University College Birmingham Guild of Students, I am joining the team to cover Emma’s role during her maternity leave.

In my spare time, I’m the treasurer of a community organisation in Derbyshire focused on empowering young women to tackle gender-based discrimination. When I’m home, I love playing board games and hanging out with my cat.

• Overseeing our social media channels and supporting students and staff to create and post engaging content 
• Updating and monitoring our website to help students stay up to date and take part in activities 
• Working on development opportunities such as branding, data and analytics

I have worked in many SU roles over the years, starting as a student receptionist and progressing through student voice, communications and community support, mostly in Aberystwyth which is where I studied my degree. I’ve also held roles in universities such as fundraising, alumni relations and digital project management. 

I spend most of my free time looking after a small menagerie of animals including dogs, horses, chickens and aquariums! I also enjoy a variety of creative outlets such as painting and sculpting as well as digital art and graphic design.

The Student Advice Coordinator provides independent, confidential support and looks out for students’ best interests including:

• Advice topics typically include complaints, appeals, disciplinaries and misconduct or behaviour issues as well as providing help with concession applications 
• Accompanying students at meetings, hearings and other formalities 
• Signposting to useful departments and organisations 
• Acting as the Sexual Violence Liaison Officer

I have always worked in student support roles in colleges and schools. I have a passion for helping people in general. 

I love to sing and remain quite active in the performing arts after studying Dance at Manchester Met. University and tend to hit the stage quite regularly. 

The Clubs and Societies Coordinator supports student groups across ULaw to provide communities and socialise including:

• Getting ideas going for events and helping with documents and processes to run a society or club 
• Helping students take their first steps in finding and joining a club or society 
• Working closely with Student Information teams to support student-led groups on individual campuses

I have worked at ULAW for 2 years now. I studied a PG Certificate in Higher Education Administration, Management and Leadership to ensure I know as much about the sector as possible!

I worked in the assessments team previously and now love helping organise events! It’s great to see students having fun and being proud of an event they managed to coordinate.

I spend my spare time being an extra in TV and Film. I’ve worked with Disney, ITV and BBC to name a few. If I’m not working with clubs and socs you’ll catch me on a plane, travelling is my main focus in life.

The Student Engagement Coordinator ensures support for student representatives and committees including:

• Providing training, advocating principles of equality, diversity, and inclusion and championing democratic values 
• Supporting the team of elected Vice-Presidents, Equalities Officers and International Student Representatives to fulfil their manifesto commitments, host events and run campaigns 
• Coordinating the Student Pool; an initiative which recruits approximately 15 students per year to act as members of university-led project groups, focus groups or committees

Before I joined the University of Law, I studied History at the University of Leeds, and achieved both an undergraduate and postgraduate degree in the subject. At Leeds I was also involved in student advocacy initiatives, from open days to international study abroad fairs to academic peer mentoring. I also studied History and Politics in Pennsylvania, USA, and as such have a particular sensitivity to the needs of international studies. I also occasionally tutor History in my spare time.

I enjoy walking, reading and travelling. 

The Academic Representation Coordinator ensures feedback and development opportunities including:

• Training and supporting the team of Programme and Class Representatives 
• Ensuring academic feedback is heard and coordinating the efforts of representatives across student-staff-liaison-committees  
• Managing the continued success of the Skills Development Programme

Before joining the University of Law, I taught A level Politics for 7 years before moving away from teaching and into the world of Students' Unions, working at Canterbury Christ Church Students' Union. While working there, I supported students studying at their satellite campus.

I studied BSc (Hons) Social Sciences and I also have a MA in Multimedia Journalism, both from the University of Kent. I also completed two years of PhD study before having to quit for financial reasons, so I understand the financial pressures facing students today. 

Outside of work, I enjoy cycling, walking, travelling and cooking.

I’m currently on maternity leave, welcoming my second child to my family. 

I come from a background in policy and student representation and love seeing students setting up new projects and making the most of their time at university. I have worked with the Office for Students (previously HEFCE) and the Quality Assurance Agency since 2017 in a range of positions, including as a Quality Assurance Reviewer. I also work as an Associate Consultant with Blackshaw Management Consultancy, working on short-term support and review projects throughout the wider sector. My previous roles in Students’ Unions have seen me managing all areas of membership services and setting up new initiatives to improve employability skills. 

I am also a qualified British Sign Language tutor and teach in my spare time. Outside of work, I am a board game and jigsaw fanatic, enjoy taking the odd adult ballet class.
