Having studied at the University of Worcester previously and having enjoyed my time here i had the university on my radar as a place i would like to work at, having worked here for a year now i can honestly say its the friendliest and most interesting company I've worked for.

Residential Support Worker (Former Employee) – Worcester – 19 June 2017
great role, especially for a student. you get to learn a lot! there's gonna be a lot of amazing responsibility and authority on your shoulders; which I found empowering and maybe flattering a bit. loved it (but tbh anything involving students it's pretty fun and easy to love)

Administration Assistant (Current Employee) – University of Worcester – 22 February 2017
The University offers lots of positions and is a very flexible and friendly place to work. My only criticism would be that academic staff are treated better and your the pay is perhaps a little low for the tasks carried out.
Pros
flexible family working
Cons
Academics get bonuses, non-academic staff have to beg for a pay increase
