Digital Media Assistant

Full Time (37.5hrs per week) – Permanent – High Wycombe (Hybrid)

Salary - £26,093 - £28,778

So this is an exciting moment to join us. We’re boldly reimagining what a university can be: a place rooted in social mobility, a community where difference is celebrated, and an institution that empowers people to become more than they thought possible.

Are you a creative digital enthusiast with a passion for web management and social media? We’re looking for a Digital Media Assistant to help bring our online presence to life. This hands-on role is perfect for a collaborative self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced marketing environment and is excited to help shape the digital journey of our future students.

Working within the Brand, Communications and Marketing directorate, you will support the Digital Media Team in maintaining, optimising, and growing BNU’s website and social media profiles. From crafting eye-catching organic posts and scheduling content, to actioning website updates via CMS and collaborating directly with our Student Ambassadors, your day-to-day work will directly impact how prospective students see and experience BNU.

If you’re eager to dive into the world of digital marketing and love keeping content fresh and engaging, we’d love to meet you!

What we offer:

a generous holiday entitlement (30 days per annum, plus bank holidays & closure days)
Hybrid working (dependent on business needs)
training & development support opportunities
contributory pension scheme
free gym membership for our on-site gym
a range of staff discounts with major retailers.

We are committed to promoting an inclusive and diverse workplace and aim to continue building an environment where everyone thrives and can be themselves.

Please let us know if you require any adjustments or support during the recruitment process. We are happy to discuss any reasonable adjustments that would enable you to perform to the best of your abilities in your role. Please reach out to [email protected] if you have any specific needs or if you would like more information on how we can support you.

We ensure that our interview/shortlisting Chairs complete the relevant e-learning and/or inclusive recruitment training.

If you’re considering using AI to support your application, we encourage you to question the value it adds. The use of AI tools sometimes erodes authenticity and prevents us from being able to assess the real you. We strongly recommend you prepare your application using your own skills and knowledge and that AI is only used for the purpose of review.

Closing Date: 23 August 2026

Interview Date: w/c 31 August 2026

If you are invited to interview for this role, you will need to provide evidence of your eligibility to work in the UK and if on a visa, current visa and status. Sponsorship is dependent on the salary level of the position. Due to the salary for this post, we are unable to offer visa sponsorship to the successful candidate.

BNU is a Disability Confident employer and as such you will be given the opportunity to declare a disability as part of the application process.
