Work while you study

We know that many of you will want to work part-time while you study. We can help.

Here are some resources to assist those looking for work while studying.

On Campus

There are lots of part-time jobs on the campus, from restocking shelves in the library to bar and catering work. The Students’ Union alone employs more than 300 students.  And if you can’t commit to regular work, there are ad-hoc positions like helping with a departmental mail shot or working as a car park attendant.

There are also many opportunities to find part-time work in the local area including seasonal work at Legoland, Thorpe Park and Windsor Castle; hospitality at Ascot and local hotels; and retail roles in nearby Staines or Windsor.
