As a vital hub within the university, its focus is to ensure the well-being, development, and success of all students. The Directorate offers a wide range of services, including academic support, mental health and counselling services, disability support, career guidance, and accommodation assistance. By fostering a supportive and inclusive environment, the Directorate of Student Services aims to empower students to thrive academically, personally, and professionally throughout their time at the University of Dundee.

We are recruiting for an exceptional individual to join us as a Head of English, NEU JEP within English for International Students, to manage and develop the provision of English tuition on a Joint Education Programme in China. This post is located in China for the duration of the semesters.

As the Head of English NEU JEP, your key responsibilities include working with the Head of EIS to develop, deliver, and manage ESAP (English for Specific Academic Purposes) modules. You will manage English provision staff and collaborate with NEU colleagues on program development and delivery. Teaching and learning responsibilities include designing teaching materials, delivering English language modules, ensuring appropriate teaching methods, and identifying areas for improvement. You will also contribute to research, mentor colleagues, manage resources, and support strategic partnership programs.

Candidates should consider applying for this role as it offers a unique opportunity to make a significant impact on the development and delivery of ESAP (Biomedical Engineering) programs in a Joint Educational Partnership in China. By joining the team, the successful candidate will have the chance to enhance teaching and scholarship strengths, while fostering innovative teaching and assessment practices. This role requires an excellent teacher with a proven interest in pedagogic innovation and experience in teaching within international contexts. If you thrive on collaboration, flexibility, and embracing new ideas and challenges, this position holds exciting prospects.

Your priorities will include:

  • Academic Development and Delivery: The candidate should focus on working with the Head of EIS to enhance the academic development and delivery of ESAP programs at NEU. This includes ensuring that teaching materials, learning support, and assessment methods align with ESAP pedagogy. The candidate should also identify areas for improvement and manage processes for enhancing the current provision.
  • Team Development and Leadership: The candidate should prioritise mentoring colleagues, providing guidance on personal development, and effectively managing the English provision staff supporting the JEP. They should lead the setting of objectives, monitor performance, and build team morale. Additionally, they should demonstrate sensitivity and consideration for the pastoral and welfare needs of staff and students, providing support and guidance as required.
  • Planning and Resource Management: The candidate should contribute to planning in the JEP, coordinating with colleagues to ensure student needs are met, and liaising with administrative staff for various operational aspects. They should plan and prioritise activities for themselves and the team, monitor team performance in medium to long- term operational planning, and collaborate with colleagues to support and enhance English provision for Strategic Partnership programs.

    Who we're looking for:
    • Experience in EAP Management and Delivery: The candidate should have recent experience in an EAP management or coordination role, with a focus on designing, delivering, and improving academic English courses. They should be familiar with language assessment and providing constructive feedback. Knowledge of quality assurance procedures and the workings of a university, including external validation processes, is crucial. This requirement ensures the candidate's ability to effectively contribute to the academic development and delivery of ESAP programs.
    • Leadership and Team Management Skills: The candidate should possess strong leadership and team management abilities. This includes mentoring colleagues, providing guidance on personal development, and effectively managing the English provision staff. They should be able to set objectives, monitor performance, and build team morale. Demonstrating sensitivity to the pastoral and welfare needs of staff and students is important for creating a supportive environment.
    • Planning and Organisational Skills: The candidate should have excellent planning and organisational skills to contribute to the overall planning in the JEP. They should coordinate with colleagues and administrative staff to ensure student needs are met, and efficiently manage resources and activities. The ability to prioritise tasks, monitor team performance, and work collaboratively to enhance English provision for Strategic Partnership programs is crucial for successful program management.
