Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom Leeds Trinity University Full time

Leeds Trinity University is seeking to appoint a Lecturer to deliver on programmes across the School of Children, Young People and Families. Situated within the growing Faculty of Health, Wellness and Life Sciences, the schools current portfolio of taught undergraduate and postgraduate programmes have been designed to support local, regional, and national workforce demands and help shape the future children's workforce. It would be advantageous for candidates to demonstrate knowledge and experience in one of the following specialisms; Mental Health, Trauma informed practice, SEND and Children and Family practice.

We are proud of our commitment to fostering an inclusive teaching environment and widening access to higher education studies for students from diverse backgrounds. As a Lecturer, you will have the opportunity to contribute to the design, delivery and evaluation of the curriculum and be involved in teaching across the entire portfolio, enabling our students to have clear understanding of the required values, knowledge and skills to effectively and professionally support children and their families to overcome the challenges they face.

Candidates must be able to demonstrate experience of student education within a relevant setting and be prepared to teach broadly across the spectrum of children, young people and families programmes within the faculty. You will have demonstrable knowledge, experience and skills within the field of either SEND, Children's Mental Health, or trauma informed practice and hold a Postgraduate degree in a related subject area, or equivalent. In addition, you will provide pastoral and subject student support, supervise projects and placements, and undertake administrative and managerial tasks associated with the above. You will also undertake research/knowledge exchange and/or professional practice and scholarship commensurate with the post to which you are appointed.

You will be motivated, pro-active and engage with collaborative working both as a team member and with wider partners. We aim to ensure that we equip our students with the skills necessary to succeed in the workplace upon graduation and throughout their professional careers. As such, we not only focus on the acquisition of caring skills and knowledge, but also on vital transferable skills such as compassionate leadership and robust digital and technology skills.
