The Southern Universities Network (SUN) brings together a range of higher education providers, further
education colleges, schools, and other organisations across Dorset, Hampshire, and the Isle of Wight. It is part
of the Uni Connect programme, funded by the Office for Students, which aims to reduce the gap in higher
education participation between the most and least represented groups.
Based at Bournemouth University and working under the direction of the SUN central team at the University of
Southampton, the post holder will collaborate with SUN partner organisations to support, develop, and deliver
activities and events for secondary and post-16 students. This will include in-person workshops, on-campus
events, and live virtual sessions aligned with the SUN core outreach programme.
The role will primarily be based in Dorset but may also involve travel across the wider region, including
Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
