Jobs in Housing Services

 

Thank you for your interest in a position with Housing Services at Trent University.  We offer opportunities for employees to learn, develop, and grow.  We foster a department culture where staff feel valued, supported and heard.  In doing so, staff are engaged in their work and have the tools they need to be successful.

 

Student Employment

Housing Services employs 85+ students between our Durham and Peterborough residences.  We offer a variety of job opportunities for students at all levels. Below are the positions that are available within our department for students.  Our annual recruitment cycle for the following year begins in December.

We are currently not accepting applications. We encourage you to check back in December 2020. 

Residence Life Dons

More than 50 residence life dons work within our 13 residences to provide a positive on-campus living and learning environment for the over 2,000 students who call campus home. The dons ensure safety and build a sense of community within our residences where you will create lifelong friendships and memories.

Residence Education Facilitators

A small but might team, our residence education facilitators (REFs) enhance the educational experience for students in residence.  The REFs develop and implement educational materials and programming.  They also support the rest of the Residence Life & Education team by creating resources needed in our Residence Learning Model. 

Service Centre Assistants

More than 30 service centre assistants (SCAs) provide exceptional customer service for both current and incoming students.  Residents will  meet our friendly SCAs at their closest service centre when they’re locked out, picking up a parcel, or if they have a general inquiry. 

Housing Admissions Assistants

Our housing admissions assistants work hard to help incoming students with their residence application and assist them through their move into residence.  You may chat with a Housing Admissions Assistant when you’re inquiring about room selection, accommodation, or applying to residence.

Facilities Assistants

As part of our facilities team, the facilities assistants help with ensuring our residences are in tip top shape.  From preparing communities for move-in, to organizing and moving furniture, FAs work to maintain our physical resources.

 

Professional Employment

We offer opportunities for professionals to engage and grow in housing and student affairs.  We conduct national searches for our positions and are committed to identifying a diverse pool of qualified applicants.

Please feel free to visit our University Human Resources website for up to date information and applications processes for open positions.
