Full job description

UOE5: £29,588 - £33,951 per annum

USG / Student Services / LEAPS

Full Time: 35 per week

Fixed term: 31 October 2027 in the first instance.

The Opportunity:

This is an exciting opportunity to join the LEAPS team as a Project Support Officer to support our efforts to widen participation in higher education.

LEAPS is a widening participation programme which aims to encourage and advise young people who are underrepresented in higher education. We currently work with state secondary schools throughout South East Scotland and the Forth Valley area, supporting pupils who match LEAPS eligibility criteria. For more about LEAPS, visit our website.

This role has a focus on supporting the LEAPS Transitions Course alongside the wider LEAPS programme of activities and delivery. There will be a mix of administrative support and delivery and contributing to the development and successful delivery of our work.

This is an entry-level opportunity to work in widening participation. The post-holder will be given professional development opportunities within a supportive team with a focus on high-quality and professional delivery in WP.

This post is full-time (35 hours per week); and combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working. The role requires working on and off-campus, in schools and partner institutions for delivery of LEAPS activities.

How to apply

Please include the following documents in your application:

- CV

- Statement of no more than 750 words to include:

why you believe you are a suitable candidate for the post, and what particular strengths and experiences you would bring to the role and to LEAPS.

One extended example of a project or experience you were involved in that you are proud of and you think will benefit this role.

Note that we expect the CV and statement to be wholly the work of applicants and not prepared using AI tools.

If you would like to chat over the role, please contact Alice Smith: [email protected]

As a valued member of our team, you can expect:

A competitive salary.
An exciting, positive, creative, challenging and rewarding place to work.
To be part of a diverse and vibrant international community.

Championing equality, diversity, and inclusion

The University of Edinburgh holds a Silver Athena SWAN award in recognition of our commitment to advance gender equality in higher education. We are members of the Race Equality Charter, and we are also Stonewall Scotland Diversity Champions, actively promoting LGBT equality.

We welcome applications from all qualified candidates and particularly encourage applications from candidates from widening participation backgrounds, as we acknowledge they are currently underrepresented in Higher Education.

Prior to any employment commencing with the University, you will be required to evidence your right to work in the UK. Further information is available on our right to work webpages (opens new browser tab)

The University is unable to sponsor the employment of international workers in this role. International applicants will therefore be unable to apply for and secure a Skilled Worker visa. They will only be able to take up this role if they can demonstrate an alternative right to work in the UK.

Key dates to note

The closing date for applications is 6 July 2026.

Unless stated otherwise the closing time for applications is 11:59pm UK time. If you are applying outside the UK the closing time on our adverts automatically adjusts to your browsers local time zone.

Interviews will be held on 4 August 2026.

Please note that while we will get back to all applicants with the outcome of applications, if you have not been invited to interview by 28th July, you have not been shortlisted on this occasion.
