A rewarding career
with purpose awaits at
a University dedicated
to transforming lives
Based in a scenic part of London in one of the
UK's most successful business regions, the
University of West London (UWL) is a beacon
for widening participation in higher education
(HE) and is the perfect place if you want a
career with purpose.
Working at UWL is a fantastic opportunity to
take part in making a difference to so many lives
because this is an institution on a mission to ensure
as many people as possible can benefit from the
fruits of university education.
Comprising eight schools and colleges - including
one of London's oldest music colleges - UWL
is known as the 'Career University' for the
outstanding opportunities students enjoy when
they enter the world of work after completing their
studies.
This matters because UWL has one of the most
highly diverse student populations in UK HE
and more than half of students (56%) come
from Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME)
backgrounds. Meanwhile, a total of 53% of
students belong to the first generation in their
family to attend university and 98% attended
state schools. More than 6 in 10 are defined as
mature - meaning they are over 21 years old
according to the Higher Education Statistics
Agency (HESA).
Proof that UWL is succeeding in this mission is
that it has one of the leading records in the HE
sector for graduate prospects. An incredible 98%
of graduates are in work or further study within six
months of collecting their degrees.*

So if you are looking for a rewarding career helping
to transform lives through education, then UWL
offers the ideal place to develop professionally.
Taking part in this mission to widen participation
in higher education certainly helps make UWL a
highly rewarding workplace. But there's even more
which marks the University out as an employer of
choice.
There is a competitive benefits package on offer,
including a generous pension scheme and there is
also plentiful opportunity to build up your skills, so
that you are equipped to succeed in the workplace
well into the future. Additionally, with £150m
recently invested in facilities and equipment, UWL
provides an outstanding, modern environment to
work in.
Access to and from the campus sites is helped
by excellent transport links such as the nearby
Underground and Overground rail networks, or by
car via the A40, M40, M4 and A4. Commuting is
poised to get even more simple with the opening
soon of a new Crossrail station (Elizabeth Line)
located at Ealing Broadway.
At the heart of delivering life-changing opportunity
to students is UWL's skilled and committed
workforce, led by an award-winning leadership
team.** So choose the University of West London
for a career with purpose which really goes places.
