Web & Digital Placement

Apply

Who the job is for

NTSU is looking for an enthusiastic, curious, and proactive Web & Digital Placement to join our Marketing, Communications & Digital team.

This role is ideal for a current or recently graduated NTU student who enjoys experimenting, solving problems, and bringing ideas to life online. If you like spotting what could be better on a website and actually fixing it, you’ll feel right at home here.

You don’t need to know everything on day one — but you do need the confidence to have a go, ask questions, and take ownership of your work.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll play a key role in the day-to-day maintenance and front-end development of NTSU’s WordPress-based websites, helping to make them more usable, accessible, and engaging for students.

Your work will include:

  • Designing and updating website content using HTML and CSS
  • Improving layouts, navigation, and user experience across our sites
  • Supporting and developing digital systems used across the organisation
  • Helping to identify and implement smart digital solutions that save time and improve how we work

You’ll also get hands-on experience with a wide range of platforms and tools, including:

  • WordPress and internal forms
  • Digital screens and content systems
  • SharePoint and Moodle
  • Automation, integrations, and workflow tools

You’ll be encouraged to test ideas, suggest improvements, and learn by doing, while working within best practice for accessibility, SEO (including emerging GEO considerations), security, and data protection.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for someone who is:

  • Proactive — you don’t just wait for tasks, you spot opportunities
  • Creative — you care about how things look and feel, not just whether they work
  • Curious — you enjoy learning new tools, techniques, and technologies
  • Collaborative — comfortable supporting non-technical colleagues

You’ll likely have:

  • Experience designing or updating WordPress websites
  • A working knowledge of HTML and CSS
  • An interest in front-end development, UX, and digital problem-solving
  • Experience with JavaScript, APIs, automation tools, or digital troubleshooting is a bonus, but not essential — enthusiasm and initiative matter more.

Why apply?

As a Web & Digital Placement at NTSU, your work will be seen and used by thousands of students. You’ll gain real responsibility, practical experience, and the chance to shape live digital products — not just observe from the sidelines.

We also offer:

  • 33 days paid holiday (pro rata), including closure days and bank holidays
  • Time off in lieu (TOIL) for additional hours worked
  • 4–6% employer pension contribution
  • Flexible working options
  • Travel pass and wage loans
  • Enhanced sick pay
  • Annual flu jabs and free eye tests
  • Training and development opportunities
  • Enhanced parental leave
