Responsibilities
Want a role where you get to meet companies, build your professional network and create real career opportunities for students?
We’re looking for an energetic and people-driven Executive – Industry Engagement & Partnerships to join us at Asia Pacific University (APU).
This isn’t a desk-bound role.
You’ll be out there connecting with employers, meeting industry professionals, building partnerships and bringing companies closer to our students and graduates.
• Build relationships with leading companies and industry professionals
• Bring new employers and industry partners into APU’s network
• Create internship and employment opportunities for students and graduates
• Engage companies for career fairs, recruitment activities, industry talks and other initiatives
• Organise employer networking sessions, industry events and engagement activities
• Meet companies to understand their talent needs and explore opportunities to collaborate
• Manage and grow relationships with existing industry partners
• Work on projects that connect students directly with the working world
• Love meeting and talking to people
• Enjoy networking and building relationships
• Aren’t afraid to pick up the phone, send that LinkedIn message or approach a new company
• Are confident communicating with professionals
• Enjoy organising events and making things happen
• Are proactive, creative and full of ideas
• Can work independently while being a strong team player
*Experience in business development, recruitment, employer relations, partnerships, sales, events or client servicing is a plus — but your attitude, communication skills and willingness to build relationships matter just as much.
Fresh graduates are encouraged to apply!
Because your work has a visible impact.
Every new company you bring in could mean a new internship, job opportunity, industry project or career connection for a student.
At the same time, you’ll build an incredible professional network and gain exposure to people and organisations across different industries.
