By joining the University of Lancashire, you’ll become part of a thriving community of talent that’s united by a shared vision - to transform the lives of our students and create prosperity and opportunity in the communities we serve. Every colleague has a vital role to play in helping us achieve this vision.

**About the role**:
Do you want to make a difference and shape the future of veterinary medicine?

We are looking for an individual to help us train a new generation of highly skilled veterinary professionals who are passionate about animal welfare.

The new School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Lancashire is an international, research-active institution, the first facility of its kind to open in the county. You will be joining a talented team who are leading the way in modern learning today, committed to widening access and participation in veterinary education. The School is developing further research activities and postgraduate teaching opportunities, along with bespoke teaching and research environments. Collaboration with internal and external research networks is encouraged.

You will contribute to the course development, delivery and management of undergraduate and postgraduate education for students enrolled in the School of Veterinary Medicine with a focus on the topic of farm animal medicine and clinical skills. You will work closely with the School of Veterinary Medicine’s academic and digital development team to create innovative and accessible learning provision to UG and PG learners, supervise and support undergraduate and postgraduate research, and contribute to the wider School and University activities.

**About you**:
For this role you are required to have a RCVS registerable degree in veterinary science or medicine and surgery; a higher education teaching qualification or professional (e.g. PGCHE, FHEA or equivalent), or a commitment to complete within one year of appointment and a relevant Masters qualification or equivalent professional specialisation/ experience.

**What we can offer you**:
Our people are our most important asset. We’ll encourage you to make the most of your talents and continually develop your skills and knowledge. As well as realising your career ambitions, you’ll be making a positive difference to other people’s lives. We also offer a fantastic package of rewards and lifestyle benefits - from an attractive annual leave entitlement to access to a comprehensive employee benefits platform.

We are proud to be a diverse, multicultural university. We are committed to building a truly inclusive culture where diversity is championed. Applications are particularly welcomed from individuals who will support the diversification within the University and support its development of a culture that is inclusive and welcoming to all.

The University is committed to providing a safe environment to study, work and visit, protecting children, young people and adults at risk from harm and abuse. Our safeguarding policy and safer recruitment procedure outlines our approach, alongside other internal policies, procedures and guidance which can be found on our Safeguarding page.

We are proud to share that we will soon be known as the University of Lancashire. Building upon nearly 200 years of academic excellence, this exciting new chapter reflects our commitment and ambition for Lancashire and beyond. We believe in helping people to seize every opportunity to flourish in education, at work and for life. Together, we’re here to help you achieve great things.
