About the university

The University of Notre Dame Australia is a private Catholic University with over 1,000 permanent staff providing an exceptional educational experience to over 12,000 students across our Fremantle, Broome, and Sydney campuses, as well as clinical schools in Victoria and New South Wales.

About the role

Student Ambassadors play an important role at Notre Dame. As representatives of the University, they assist with the delivery of events and activities that engage future students. These include outreach activities, student recruitment events, on-campus days, call campaigns, career expos, and mentoring. These activities offer opportunities for future students to discover Notre Dame and increase their understanding of university, degrees, support services, admission pathways and more.

Student Ambassadors are employed as casual staff at Notre Dame, provided with induction and training for the role, and offered work on an ad hoc basis throughout the year based on their availability and skill set.

Student ambassadors are paid at the HEW2.1 hourly rate.

Student ambassadors regularly work with students from groups that are traditionally underrepresented at university, such as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students, students from low socio-economic areas, students from regional and remote areas, and students who would be the first in their family to attend university. As such, we encourage students from these groups to apply!
