About the Role

The Institute of Health and Allied Health Professions at Nottingham Trent University is looking to appoint an enthusiastic and forward-thinking Senior Lecturer in Occupational Therapy. We’re seeking an individual who is experienced in the field of Occupational Therapy education and who can provide high quality teaching and learning for our students.

The successful candidate will join the newly established Occupational Therapy team to make a valued contribution to our Occupational Therapy courses currently in development.
