Careers and Placements Centre

The Careers and Placements Centre is in the Main Building, South Wing, First Floor. It's where you will find our Placements Team, Jobshop Team and Careers Consultants as well as many of our other support staff.

Please note that Aston University will be closed over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend (Friday 29th March to Tuesday 2nd April inclusive), so the Careers and Placements staff will be unavailable during that period. The Careers and Placements Centre will reopen from Wednesday 3rd April with opening hours of 10am-4pm until Friday 19th April.

Call the Careers and Placements Centre on +44 (0)121 204 4757
