Discover Student Talent

Our students and graduates are sought after locally, nationally and internationally with high-quality teaching, facilities and work experience embedded in their learning practice.

We can help you find a skilled student, whether you’re an employer with an established graduate scheme, an SME looking for specialist knowledge or an entrepreneur wanting some part-time marketing or systems support. The university can advertise your vacancies directly to students, and we will work with you to ensure we provide you with a student whose skills match your organisational requirements.

I would like to thank you for your help in finding us a first class Office Administrator who recently joined our company. Several University of Plymouth graduates applied for the position and we chose an outstanding candidate who is settling in to the company superbly.
