Meet our new Senior Schools and College Outreach Officer

Name: Eilidh Shakespeare
Job title: Senior School & College Outreach Officer
Team/department: Marketing, Recruitment & Communications

I joined BCU because I’m passionate about helping young people see higher education as an achievable and exciting pathway for their future. I'm excited to try new things and inspire students towards their next steps.

My role involves supporting students with their progression into HE by providing outreach activity both externally at schools and colleges, as well as internally on campus at BCU.

I bring to BCU experience in student engagement, partnership working with schools and colleges, and delivering informative and interactive outreach activities that support students in making informed decisions about higher education.

Prior to BCU, I worked in youth work, primary education, outreach and student engagement roles within further and higher education.
