About the Career Zone
At the Career Zone, our goal is to help prepare you for life and work after University, offering quality assistance and advice throughout your course, and after graduation.
Whether you’re deciding on your future, planning to get more experience, or in the midst of competing for a job, we’re here to support you. Our information and events are categorised by Reflect, Explore, Focus, Act to help you to get the right information at the right time to suit your career planning. We have also created a Career Zone Survival Guide to help you get started.
Our mission
To be a nationally renowned and highly-valued team within the University, known for our expertise, professionalism and customer-focused approach, and for our ability to provide exceptional information, advice and guidance which gives our customers the best possible chance of fulfilling their career potential.
These key values shape the service we offer for our students. Whilst of course we as a careers and employability service share and enact the brand values of the University, we also have some of our own:
- Be approachable and positive in all we do.
- Be a friendly, customer-focussed front desk service.
- Be able to handle a wide range of enquiries efficiently and with care.
- Deliver unbeatable career advice and opportunities.
- Work hard, communicate well, and deliver excellence as a team.
Our aim is to assist the university in delivering excellence to all students, employers and staff, to help build better futures!
