Yes, with your business management background and strong work experience, you’ll find several part-time roles in the UK that align with your skills.

Best-fit sectors include:
- University roles: Administrative support, student ambassador, or research assistant positions offer flexible hours and relevant experience.
- Business-related internships: Marketing assistant, sales support, or operations assistant roles help build your CV and apply your expertise.
- Retail and hospitality: Customer service and event staff jobs provide flexible schedules and enhance communication skills.
- Tutoring or mentoring: Academic tutor or peer mentor roles allow you to leverage your knowledge and leadership.

International students can typically work up to 20 hours/week during term time and full-time during vacations (subject to change).
