6 months ago


Colchester, United Kingdom University of Essex Full time

The successful candidate will be joining a small team of academic and professional services colleagues in the School, led by the School’s Head of Department and the Director of Research. A collegiate approach and strong commitment to team working is essential.

To date, the School’s focus has been on education. The School is now implementing a phased start to research. The post advertised will assist the School to implement its strategy within the setting of the strong cross-disciplinary culture across the University of Essex. It is expected that research will build on existing strengths of other departments as well as seeking research opportunities connected to having a commercial 4-star hotel on campus, and identifying new and distinctive research questions that will frame the School’s research identity. Generating external income to support research and knowledge transfer and laying foundations for a submission to REF2028, will be important strands of the new strategy. The successful Senior Lecturer (ASER) post will have the responsibility of making a significant contribution to the Schools research strategy and its REF2028 submission.

The post holder will also support the delivery of teaching and learning activities within the department in the areas of hospitality, events and tourism management to undergraduate and postgraduate students.

Skills and qualifications required

You will have or be close to the completion of a relevant doctoral degree and have professional experience and practice together with experience of working independently in higher education teaching. You will have a strong track record of published academic output at international levels of recognition with evidence of a clear publication plan for submission to future Research Excellence Framework (REF) programmes. You will have a sustained record of effectiveness in education at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, incorporating the organisation, leadership and/or management of specific aspects of provision.

Full details of the essential criteria can be found in the ‘Person Specification’ within the Job Pack attached.
