Comfortable taking ownership of your workload, you’ll be proactive in identifying solutions, anticipating challenges and ensuring that every event is delivered to a high standard.

You’ll be a collaborative team player with strong administrative and organisational skills, capable of managing complex logistics, budgets and competing deadlines. Most importantly, you’ll bring enthusiasm, flexibility and a genuine passion for creating memorable events, making a positive contribution to the success of Bath Spa University’s conference and events programme.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
