Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This role is ideally suited to someone with experience working in a busy press office or as a journalist. We’re looking for a skilled writer and storyteller with a passion for higher education, media relations, and digital engagement. Given the Faculty, a background in Creative Industries PR/communication would be particularly welcome.
Who we're looking for
- You're a skilled writer with strong news instincts and proven experience in PR, journalism, or corporate communications.
- You understand what makes a story compelling and how to adapt it for different platforms and audiences.
- You're confident advising senior leaders, able to manage competing priorities, and genuinely excited about using communications to drive positive change.
- Most importantly, you believe in what we do and want to help us demonstrate how we're making a difference at Middlesex. If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.
