We are looking for Oxford Maths Ambassadors!

Ambassadors are students that make our outreach events truly welcoming and friendly, and make sure that things run smoothly. They’re pro-active and enthusiastic about Maths, and they work with us on open days, the Maths Festival, school visits, and online events like OOMC and the MAT Livestream. We pay our ambassadors Oxford Living Wage for most events.

Sunday, 25 October 2026, 10:00–11:30 am, North School at Examination Schools 

This event is aimed at students in quantitative disciplines who are graduating in 2027 or 2028, and it offers a great opportunity to test skills and participate in Squarepoint's hiring process.

Happy Hour is cancelled today, but will be back next week.
