Description

We are seeking to appoint an agency to develop a new website for our accommodation offer. The current site is over 300 pages and we are looking to reduce it by at least a third to under 100 pages.
The Accommodation site at https://www.ncl.ac.uk/accommodation/ is primarily for undergraduate and postgraduate applicants who want to choose and book student accommodation at the University.
The site is a key part of recruitment and conversion activity and accommodation is an important part of the student experience. Secondary audiences include:

• Current students (UG and PG)
• Staff
• Visitors to the University

The objectives of the site development include:

• Developing two distinct user journeys through the site:
o prospective students
o current students living in University accommodation
• Creation of the site in the new design system and the latest version of our CMS, T4 v8.
• Reduce the size of the site, improve user journeys and incorporate improved accommodation content regarding cost and value for money.
• To develop the site in time to support the launch of the accommodation booking system in Jan 2023
