To effectively engage its membership in its decision-making so it is truly representative, responsive and relevant, it is crucial that HISA’s key processes and structures work smoothly and are evidence-led. The Insight and Democracy Coordinator, in conjunction with the Director of Student Engagement and Representation and other staff, is at the heart of the effectiveness of these processes and structures.
There are two key areas of activity:
While the list of key responsibilities is extensive, the role is cyclical in nature due to the nature of the academic year. This means that not all activities will require to be undertaken at the same time, and it should also be noted that the postholder will be closely supported by the Director of Student Engagement and Representation and will work closely with the Development Managers, Advice Service Coordinator, and others. Nonetheless, effective planning of these diverse responsibilities will be a key attribute of a successful candidate.

We particularly welcome applications from people living with a disability or long-term health condition, LGBTQ+ people, younger people and those from ethnic minority communities.
