Save the Student was founded in 2007, and is now the UK's largest student money website.

Every month millions of students turn to us for the latest financial advice and to take advantage of the great student deals and exclusives we secure.

As the cost of university continues to rise, we're working harder than ever to support students and graduates across the country.

By joining our team you'll quickly develop valuable skills including content research, editing and writing, SEO, social media, digital marketing and affiliate marketing.

You’ll have one-to-one meetings every week, and fortnightly group editor sessions.

As you might've guessed, we are passionate about supporting young people. Aside from our own content and campaigns, we are committed to monthly contributions to UK charities involved in helping young people who need it most.

Since 2020 we have pledged to offset our collective carbon footprint by planting over 163 trees every month. See how many trees we've planted so far!
