The Department of Education and Inclusion is seeking to appoint an outstanding and motivated Senior Lecturer in Education to join our team. The successful candidate will contribute to both undergraduate and postgraduate Education programmes, with a particular emphasis on our postgraduate provision. You will be confident in leading modules and areas of work, and will play a key role in developing and delivering our Master of Research (MRes) programme, as well as supervising students on other postgraduate courses.

We especially welcome applicants with experience in research supervision, designing and delivering CPD, research projects, and course outreach activities. If your expertise includes mentoring and coaching or online pedagogy, we strongly encourage you to apply.

At the University of Worcester, we are proud of the high-quality, innovative courses that prepare students for rewarding careers in education. The Department of Education and Inclusion is deeply committed to promoting equality, inclusion, and diversity.

As such, applicants are expected to bring subject expertise relevant to our diverse portfolio of courses and demonstrate active engagement in research to underpin teaching, especially on the MA Education.
