University of Warwick

About Us

We’re a world-leading university with the highest academic and research standards. But we’re not letting the story end there. That’s because we’re a place of possibility. We’re always looking for new ways to make things happen. Whether you’re a gardener, an innovative lecturer or someone looking for a career in administration, Warwick provides a tireless yet supportive environment in which you can make an impact. And our staff, along with our students and alumni are consistently making an impact - the kind that changes lives, whether close to home or on a global scale.

It’s the achievements of our people that help explain why our levels of research excellence and scholarship are recognised internationally. It’s a prime attraction for some of the biggest names in worldwide business and industry. It’s why we’re ranked highly in the lists of great UK and world universities.

All of this contributes to a compelling story, one that’s little more than 50 years old. But who said youth should hold you back from changing the world?

What it’s like to work for us?

Warwick moves at the fast pace of the world around it - that's why there's such an energy on campus. You'll find this special atmosphere is the result of attracting staff and students who share our values and want to thrive among like-minded people. At Warwick, we constantly look for improvements. Our Ideas Space is an exciting new environment where our staff and postgraduate researchers can collaboratively post, review and develop new ideas and initiatives. We're also proud of our Simplify, Collaborate, Deliver programme, which empowers staff to identify and implement improvements and solutions to the way things are currently run.

Dedicated learning and development resources enable you to progress personally and professionally, while our staff survey gives everyone the chance to contribute opinions and ideas about the University as a whole, ensuring that working at Warwick is as rewarding as you make it. Our Wellbeing Support team run regular staff workshops on a range of topics, from building self-esteem to anger management and emotional resilience.

The type of jobs we recruit for?

We employ a vast range of staff, from gardeners to admin assistants, from hospitality staff to sports centre staff, technicians, arts centre stage and front of house staff. Academic staff make up only about half of our 7,000 employees so the chances are there will be a role that's just right for you!
