Student Voice Leaders (SVLs) are paid student partners who work alongside staff in each academic school to improve the student experience. 

They’ve replaced the old Course Rep system to create a more focused, solution-driven approach. Instead of simply collecting and passing on feedback, SVLs help analyse it, join key discussions with staff, and co-create practical changes that make a real difference. 

In summary, Student Voice Leaders…

• Take part in school-level meetings to explore trends in student feedback. 
• Work in partnership with staff to design and deliver improvements. 
• Share updates with students on what’s changed and why.

Course Reps were great at raising issues – but too often, those issues got stuck in a feedback loop without a clear route to action. Student Voice Leaders bridge that gap. By being part of school-level discussions and university-wide “Education Hackathons”, they work on solutions from the start, so changes happen faster and communication back to students is clearer. 

We recruit SVLs in each academic school, roles are flexible, paid, and designed to fit around your studies. Applications are currently closed, though will be shown here.
