Northampton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom University of Northampton Full time

About the Job

Part time: 0.5 FTE (18.5 hours a week)

Fixed term for 12 months

Interview date: 13th June 2024

The University of Northampton is seeking an inspirational Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology. You will join a growing, dynamic and collegiate team with an embedded culture of student-focused teaching and high impact research.

The post holder will primarily be responsible for delivering high quality teaching to our students and assisting in the design and development of innovative and inclusive teaching materials on our BPS accredited BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise psychology programme. Applications are welcomed from individuals with experience of exercise and sport psychology.

As an academic, you will also be expected to contribute to the research and scholarly output of the subject area and work collegiately with other researchers within the Faculty and wider University. Research and scholarship are supported through our research centres, mentor scheme, and leave for scholarly activity.

We want you to be able to carry out your work in a way that best supports UON and our students, but also you as an individual. We understand this may vary between different areas of the university as well as from one person to another. With Smarter Working you can work with increased flexibility, if you would like to, which can facilitate greater freedom and autonomy. However, there will be an expectation to carry out teaching duties appropriate to the session type, meetings with staff and students, and personal tutor support should this require a physical, on-campus presence at various times.

About you

You will have academic and / or professional background in exercise and / or sport psychology with the ability to translate theory to practice and create learning environments to develop students' knowledge, skills and professional competencies relating to sport and exercise psychology. An ability to teach across the wider subject area and contribute to other programmes will be considered an advantage.

The successful candidate will be ICT literate and have experience in leading and teaching modules in HE settings. You will be highly disciplined, organised, supportive, and able to work collegiately within a team. A successful track record of research publications, successful grant applications, and/or generation of commercial income, would be welcomed.
