Student Ambassadors are carefully selected representatives of Macquarie University. As the face of the University for prospective students, ambassadors are chosen for their communication skills, professionalism, leadership potential and engagement with university life.
We’re looking for current Macquarie University students who make the most of their university experience and are excited to share it with others. Whether you’ve been involved in student clubs or societies, sport, mentoring, leadership programs, volunteering, PACE, internships, exchange or other university initiatives, we’d love to hear how you’ve contributed to campus life.
As a Student Ambassador you’ll gain more than casual employment. Join a highly regarded team of student leaders who represent Macquarie, develop career-defining skills and help future students discover what's possible.
Depending on your interests and experience, you may have opportunities to feature in university marketing campaigns, videos, publications, and social media content. The main activities you would be performing as a student ambassador include:
To perform well in this role, you will need to be approachable, proactive, adaptable, confident in presenting to a wide range of audiences and willing to go the extra mile. Many of our Student Ambassadors have gone on to secure competitive graduate positions across consulting, government, education, health, technology and finance. Alumni frequently identify their ambassador experience as one of the most valuable opportunities for developing confidence, communication and leadership skills.
Represent Macquarie at flagship events including Open Day, Experience Macquarie Days, schools visits, expos and careers markets and other major recruitment activities
You must be available for Open Day on Saturday 14 August, 2027 and training days throughout 2026 and 2027.
