Cambridge SU runs its annual Freshers’ Fair for students on Parker’s Piece in Cambridge; approximately 18,000 people attend over the two days. The Freshers’ Fair is a chance to showcase everything Cambridge has to offer new and current students, particularly for student societies to engage with students.
The fair will take place on Tuesday 8th and Wednesday 9th October 2024. We are seeking temporary personnel willing to commit to assist us in running the fair at a range of times (from 6am until 7pm across both days).
Duties will be very varied but examples include:
- Replenishing fair supplies
- Lifting tables
- Monitoring toilets
- Answering questions of visitors and stall-holders
- Directing queues and vehicles, and responding to any manner of problems as they arise;
There'll be lots of standing around inside the marquee, outdoors on Parker's Piece and time spent on your feet, but the environment is buzzing and fun.
We'll expect temps to muck-in and be part of a much larger team helping to bring the event to life. The placement is expected to be enjoyable and requires Stewards to have a positive attitude and enjoy the experience; be helpful and hard-working; and capable of responding to simple instructions with a smile!.
