Working at the SoL

Working at the SoL

Thinking of Working at the School of Languages?

Aside from the numerous professional opportunities listed above, we have a number of practices and facilities that help make an active and welcoming workplace. Here are just a few examples:

  • Each incoming staff member is paired up with a ‘mentor’ who will help them adapt and answer any questions that they may have over their first year at the SoL.
  • Foreign staff can take advantage of free weekly Staff Chinese lessons to help them adapt to life in China.
  • The university offers a range of sports facilities for its staff, including gyms, tennis and badminton courts, football pitches, and more.
  • We have a number of staff WeChat groups for different interests (e.g. football, buy & sell, parenting, baking…).
  • During the semester, we raise money for local charities through our monthly All Things Cakey cake sales, held in our free coffee zone on the Foundation Building’s 6th floor.
