Many current employees have found their way to Bury College through previous Work for Us events. Sandra Smith, a Student Information Administrator, shared her experience: "I came to the event, and everyone was lovely, friendly, and they showed me to the department I would like to work in. Then, about four months later a position did become available. My favourite benefits of working at the college are the pension, and the fact we shut down for two weeks for the Christmas holiday. It’s lovely to be able to spend some time at home with my family."
Bury College is committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where staff can thrive. From professional development to a comprehensive benefits package, the College values its employees and invests in their success.
