Case study
I have been connecting with University of Portsmouth students via the Jobs Board for the past seven years, and it is a pleasure to work with such excellent students who put so much effort and enthusiasm into running our clubs.
The Jobs Board team is incredibly helpful, and I feel lucky to have this opportunity to recruit fantastic team members who bring their own experiences into the role.
It is a privilege to be able to help students gain experience towards their future career aspirations, and to get to know each of them while we are working together."

Before you enquire
- We only advertise paid roles that comply with minimum wage and equal opportunities legislation. Unpaid vacancies, commission-only and cash-in-hand roles are not accepted.
- We also don’t accept: roles from private individuals, door-to-door sales, brand ambassador roles promoting consumer goods, apprenticeships below Level 7, opportunities requiring any upfront payment from students, agency vacancies that don’t name the client, or employers without a full company name, corresponding email address and website.
- Unpaid industrial placements of nine to twelve months must be approved by the Optional Placements Team before they can be advertised.
- We recommend students work no more than 20 hours a week during term time.
- International students on a Student visa can’t take permanent full-time roles, self-employment, or work as a professional sportsperson or entertainer. They’ll show you a shared code and evidence of student status for your right to work check.
- We reserve the right to refuse, withdraw or cancel an employer registration or vacancy without giving reason.
