We place equal emphasis on teaching and research, be it subject or pedagogic research to transform lives. Our portfolio covers Maths, Physics and a broad range of Engineering disciplines The Department is arranged into a number of subject groups responsible for developing and delivering their relevant subject areas and courses. The Department benefits from strong industry partners; we work with a number of leading organisations including JCB, Kimberly Clark, AMEY Rail and Network Rail to provide applied learning opportunities for our students and jobs for our graduates. Our graduates perform well in the labour market with 89% in work or further study and 72% in highly skilled employment.
For this post, we are looking to recruit two academics to our Future Transportation Subject Group to lead, develop and deliver aspects of engineering management. The successful applicants will have knowledge and expertise in one or more of the following: project management, operations management, quality management or engineering business management. Professional experience, preferably obtained through employment in a relevant industrial sector, is also essential.
The successful candidates will be expected to contribute to delivery across our Aerospace, Automotive and Railway Engineering courses. However, we have a particular requirement for someone who can lead and develop our practice in Rail Engineering Management for our collaborations with the railway industry and contribute to the development of our Railway Engineering course provision and in particular our Degree Apprenticeship programme.
We offer a diverse range of benefits and opportunities to pursue a rewarding and fulfilling career in a supportive environment.
As well as 25 days annual leave and the eight standard UK bank holidays, you also get up to six extra days each year for extended University closure around some UK public/holidays.
You will be contractually enrolled into the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) – one of the largest and most generous defined benefit pension schemes in the country. Each year you will earn a secure pension benefit of 1/57th of your salary and the University will pay pension contributions towards the cost of this pension (currently worth about 24% of your salary). For a starting salary of £40,000, for example, the University would pay around £9,500 in the first year of your employment and you would earn a pension of £702 p.a. for that year (payable from your State Pension Age).
