Sydney, Australia University of New South Wales Full time

**Job no**: 529569
**Work type**: Part Time
**Location**: Sydney, NSW
**Categories**: Student Services
- Employment Type: Part Time (8-hour week)
- Duration: Fixed Term (12-month contract until December 2025)
- Remuneration: $74357 - pro rata (+ 17% superannuation and leave loading)
- Location: Kensington NSW (UNSW Colleges)

**About the role**

The Resident Mentor plays an important role within the Division of Education and Student Experience under the Pro Vice-Chancellor Student Success, by being a leading example to student residents, in their professional and personal lives, and by working closely with the Dean and Deputy Dean to facilitate the academic, social and cultural life of the College.

Resident Mentors (RMs) live with the students on their floors and provide daily academic and pastoral support. RMs aren’t teachers, but they’re a little like a supportive older sibling with experience to pass on and a willingness to help guide the residents.

Some of the duties involve: taking an active role in floor and College events, participating in meetings and training, assisting in the overnight/after hours on-call Duty Roster, mentoring students in meeting their academic requirements, as well as promoting respectful relationships between residents. You can view the full list of responsibilities in the job description (located at the bottom of the job ad on official UNSW Careers Page).

**About You**:
You are a great communicator and will display sensitivity, confidentiality and responsiveness of the needs of resident students and staff. We are looking for someone who:

- Is preferably engaged in study, academic employment and/or professional work associated with UNSW with a high level of academic achievement and/or demonstrated excellence in a professional field
- Is living on site or willing to move into our college
- Has demonstrated ability to contribute to the collegiate community life of a college or other establishment
- Has experience in and/or a good understanding of the diverse needs and interests of students from a broad range of backgrounds and cultures, from within Australia and from overseas
- Has an understanding of relevant equity and diversity policies, especially of harassment and discrimination policies, as they would relate to a college environment
- Has a First Aid Certification or willing to undertake it before starting
- Has a Working With Children Check and Police check (you will need to obtain those documents if successful)
- Is willing to undertake Warden, Mental Health Awareness and other relevant UNSW training courses
- Is committed to attending and maintaining Mental Health Awareness and other student support training

**Applications close**: 19 December 11AM. We reserve the right to close the job ad earlier so if you are interested.
