As a Staff Residential Adviser, you will be part of a team providing pastoral support and guidance to students living in halls of residence. Residential Wellbeing is the support network for students in university accommodation and sits within the wider Student Wellbeing Team. Together, we support around 2500 students living across our campuses in Brighton.
