Ideal Part-Time Jobs For Students

As a student, it can be hard finding the right job that you can balance with your studies. That’s why we’ve curated a list with some of the best part-time jobs for students to take on when you want to earn an income without sacrificing all of your free time.

As the world transitions into the digital age of social media and online marketing, many businesses are struggling to keep up so they look to find new ways to draw in fresh audiences. For businesses, a brand ambassador can be a great way to grow their audience and it also happens to be the perfect role for a student since university is a place full of potential customers for many of these companies. As an added perk you usually pick your own hours and can earn a range of discounts working for brands you love! Part-time jobs for students have never been this exciting!

2. Social Media Manager

As a university student it’s likely you are already on social media, some more than others, but if you are someone who likes to stay updated on social trends and often checks their notifications, the role of Social Media Manager might be perfect for you! Many companies, big and small, are seeking young people to manage their social media accounts since most of the older generation just don’t quite have a grasp on it yet. The best part is for many of these roles you don’t need a CV full of experiences or references, all you need is experience running your own social media!

3. Dog Walker

If you’re an animal lover you should consider pet sitting or being a dog walker! Many people have dogs and other pets that they can’t be with during the working day. These furry companions need human attention during the day so there will always be work – plus these jobs tend to pay very well… As a dog walker you get the added bonus of good exercise and socialisation making it the ideal way to take your mind off the stresses of university life.

4. Tutor

By your second or third year at university you should have enough of an understanding of your course to be able to hand on some of this knowledge. You can use knowledge for financial gain by being a tutor! As a tutor you have the power of picking your hours as well as being able to teach something you’re passionate about. It can also be a great way to develop your soft skills and looks very impressive on a CV.

5. Deliveroo Driver
