This incredible opportunity allows you to gain hands-on leadership experience and learn valuable skills by recruiting and managing a team of Teesside University fundraisers to reach their full potential through supporting TU events and activities.

What You'll Do: 

This incredible opportunity allows you to gain hands-on leadership experience and learn valuable skills by recruiting and managing a team of Teesside University fundraisers to reach their full potential, organising socials, fundraising events and supporting their welfare of fellow peers. You'll serve as a crucial liaison between the university, the charity, and the team, providing essential information about university funding and assistance.

 

We are looking for a student Team Leader to represent Teesside University and become an ambassador for the charity, honing your skills in events management, networking, and more. These essential abilities will set you apart in the competitive working world. Throughout the academic year, Play Action will provide training, guidance and mentoring, ensuring your personal development aligns with your goals.

Why You'll Love It: 
Love travelling? Love being sociable? Team Leader roles are now available with Play Action International, our trusted charity partner for the upcoming academic year. Gain experience in the Education, International Development and Third Sector with the award-winning charity.   And here's an added perk: Ever thought about travelling to East Africa? Team Leaders can enjoy up to 40% off their fundraising target and join the team in Uganda. Plus, Play Action will provide you with a glowing reference that will make employers take notice!   Prepare to elevate your university experience with a voluntary role that combines the best aspects of a society committee position, but with even greater rewards. This role is designed to be flexible, accommodating your full-time studies, while offering you a transformative experience that matches your level of dedication.
