The opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity for a graphic design specialist to play a key role in the delivery of the BA Graphic Design Programme at Chelsea College of Arts and shape the future of design practice.
You will be responsible for equipping students with the creative and critical skills to design for real-world and speculative futures, championing experimentation and embedding emerging technologies and methodologies into your teaching.
You will deliver and lead units focused on interactive and immersive experience design, guiding students through research, ideation, prototyping and the production of digital and hybrid experiences that engage audiences across platforms.
You will also be responsible for curriculum development and will work collaboratively with the course team to develop pedagogy and the curriculum in innovative, experimental, and future-oriented directions. You will provide academic and pastoral support, monitor student progress, and contribute to an inclusive, industry-relevant curriculum that challenges the canon and promotes diversity, equity, and sustainability.
Your profile
Experience of teaching and assessment in a Higher Education environment or equivalent experience is essential.
You will also need demonstrable experience of applying emerging technologies — e.g. AR/VR/XR prototyping, generative media, creative coding, or AI-driven design tools — within a professional or educational context.
You will bring current, practice-informed insight in UX/UI and next-generation experience design (PX, AiX, MX) and creative applications of AI (e.g. generative image/video, AI-assisted design workflows) and AR/XR prototyping, immersive storytelling, multisensory environments, and computational thinking.
