Job Description

The current opportunity is available for current Manchester Met students, to apply you must be based in the UK for the duration of the role.
 
There is an opportunity for a student to work as Events Assistant on an upcoming recruitment event for a sociolinguistics research project based at the Palace of Westminster, London.

Duties may include:
  • Assist in pre-event preparation.
  • Assist with the delivery of the event.
  • General administration duties.
Date: Tuesday 30 June 2026
Times: 1pm-4pm + travel to/from London
