“I was looking for a fun, sociable job and – eureka! – I found it!”
Our people Andrew Aquilina Service and Sales Advisor
Andrew Aquilina was looking for something a little more fun and a little more sociable than his job as a nightclub manager – luckily for us, he found Unite Students. And hasn’t looked back.
Andrew Aquilina Service and Sales Advisor
Before I started working as a Sales and Service Advisor for Unite Students, I was a nightclub manager. I was looking for a more fun, sociable job and – eureka! – I found it! I was a little apprehensive about working with students at first, but meeting new people every year and helping people is very satisfying.
While the rewards are great, they aren’t the reason I love my job – that’s down to the working environment. It’s busy and varied, which makes it interesting, and doing it with a team who are all on the same page is awesome! The company clearly cares about its employees and is always recognising a job well done, which I love.
If you have the opportunity to join Unite Students, whether it’s a team at head office or in one of the student properties, take it. You won’t be disappointed!
“Not everyone can say they enjoy their job, but I do and it’s a perfect fit for my skillset.”

Brady Lee Vassallo Maintenance Engineer
I joined Unite Students in June 2016 having worked in conjunction with Unite Students staff when I held a position at the University of Portsmouth halls of residence. After seeing how Unite Students functioned first hand, I knew it was the place for me. I can honestly say It’s met all my expectations and I’m really happy in my role. Not everyone can say they enjoy their job, but I do and it’s a perfect fit for my skillset.
I’m currently a Maintenance Engineer specialising in plumbing and it’s fair to say that some days are fast paced – and no day is the same as the next, so anything can happen! Having said that, we always deal with everything that comes in in a calm and professional manner and we’re always met with gratitude and thanks for the effort that we put in.
The culture and the attitude of the staff are second to none, and I believe the management style is great. Overall, this is a very rewarding, satisfying job that continually lets me use my skills and personality to enhance the student experience.
