MacEwan Careers: Student Success Assistant Job for Current Students

MacEwan University’s current Careers opportunities list includes a Student Success Assistant (Student Casual) position within Student Life in Edmonton. The role is currently displayed under Staff opportunities on the employer’s careers site.

This is a useful student-focused addition because it gives current learners paid campus experience in student support, resource navigation and engagement rather than using another general professional role.

The position is separate from the Exercise Specialist I vacancy already used in the earlier MacEwan careers CSV.

Opportunity Overview

Student Success Assistants help other students connect with services, information and resources that can support their university experience.

The job develops communication, peer-support and campus-engagement skills and can be useful for students considering future work in education, advising, student services, communications or community support.

Available Position

• Position: Student Success Assistant (Student Casual)
• Employer: MacEwan University
• Department: Student Life
• Location: Edmonton, Alberta
• Competition: 26.06.117
• Status: Current Staff opportunity

Key Responsibilities

The assistant supports Student Life programming and helps students understand where to go for university services or academic and personal support.

Work can include front-line student contact, outreach, appointments, presentations or events and sharing accurate information about campus resources.

Because students may discuss personal or academic concerns, the assistant needs to understand boundaries, confidentiality and when a matter should be referred to professional university staff.

Who Can Apply?

The position is designed for current MacEwan students and candidates must meet the academic and student-status requirements in the individual competition.

Peer mentoring, customer service, campus involvement, volunteering or student-leadership experience can strengthen the application.

Strong communication, organization and respect for students from varied backgrounds are important for a student-facing role.

Pay and Current Status

MacEwan’s current opportunities page continues to list Student Success Assistant under Staff opportunities. Because the indexed employer page does not display a reliable current salary or one fixed closing date, those fields are intentionally left blank rather than estimated.

Applicants should use competition 26.06.117 for the most current details during the application process.

How to Apply

Open MacEwan University’s official Careers opportunities page and select Student Success Assistant (Student Casual), competition 26.06.117. Confirm your current student eligibility and tailor the resume around peer support, communication and campus involvement.

Tips for Applicants

Use student-facing examples

Mention peer mentoring, orientation, clubs, volunteering or service roles where you helped another student.

Know campus resources

Be prepared to explain how you would help a student find the right service without trying to solve a specialist issue yourself.

Show confidentiality and boundaries

Examples involving sensitive information or appropriate referral can demonstrate maturity for the role.

Final Notes

MacEwan’s employer careers page currently lists this Student Life role, so it is included as the additional student-focused MacEwan opportunity without inventing an expiry date.
